Newbie with only Cruise America experience
Hi, I'm planning to rent a class C next summer for 4 weeks and tour the west with my husband and 3 kids. I've done a lot of research, but our only experience is using pop-up campers when we were kids...

It's tough to jump into a rented motorhome and zip off on a trip. We did it twice, and then realized we would be better with our own rig.
It takes a day or two at least to get familiar with the peculiarities of that specific rig, learn what works and what doesn't. Towing ups the complexity significantly. If I were you, I'd keep things as simple as possible.
Motorhomes are not cars. Lots of stuff rattles around, they are far less maneuverable than the car, and you can't make the kind of daily mileage you might in a car.
But we like them in spite of all that!
