Opinion on Class C
Hello We are planning on getting into the R.V. world by way of a 24' C Class. As being a novice to this, I was wondering on your collective opinion on a couple of Vehicles. #1 Thor, Four Winds, 22...

Yep. Jayco Redhawk 22SE **Model 22C** 
. They also have the 22A. It's nice to have the living area slide, but that corner bed is a noxious deal killer for us. 
. Those beds are hard to make up, worse to get in and out of, especially for the one near the wall. For one person ...or two newlyweds... OK.
Here's Four Winds 22B
Both are available on E350 or 4500. Very similar floor plans. Both fiberglass front caps. I think both are TPO (rubber) roof. IMO, the CAP is a bigger problem source than the ROOF. In other words, I'd take FG front cap with TPO over made-up front cap and FG roof. BOTH is of course best.
As a unit, the Four Winds isn't the bottom of the Thor lineup, and many rental companies use them. I don't think I'd shy away from one only on the Thor name. But Jayco might have better dealers and better factory support.
EDIT: Four Winds has a split level interior. My DW wouldn't want that, insists on a flat floor throughout the whole "house" but what it can do, is offer more external storage space. All the engineering in the world won't make up for a floor plan that doesn't work for YOU. Likewise, limited or awkward STORAGE can be very frustrating.
