small class C recommendations?

Question

We just sold a great little 18ft Rpod TT due to back issues that make it too hard to manage the heavy hitch and are looking for a small class C that will allow us to take our young granddaughters camping in a couple of years.  We mostly dry camp, often in forest service campgrounds, so we need something with adequate clearance and would like something small enough to park in our driveway which is 24'.  Any recommendations?  We are going to the Sacramento RV show tomorrow to take a look, but I value the experience and advice I have seen while reading the posts here. Thanks!

Go HERE. you'll be able to look at floorplans and decide which and what will work for you. Armed with that information, you'll be able to make an informed decision as to what will work. Then begin your search for the best "deal"... Enjoy the show, they're always fun. Word of caution though-hasty decisions hurt your wallet....Dennis

I must ask, though, if managing the hitch on that small R-Pod is too much for your back, don’t you find the tank dumping process a bit difficult, too?

I bought a thor 23u just shy of 25 ft. Has a side barrel chair which works well for us.  Nice to have a different place to sit besides dinette on rainy days, and at night. It turned over 10k miles after last trip to the sierras and has held up well considering the abuse, bad roads etc. Waterproof and house seems tough. Minor glitches, they all have. Good luck. For our style of camping these days, smaller is better. .especially if you want to be moving more often.  We tended to lay around more when we had luxuries of our 40 ft diesel.

The weight distribution hitch weighed about 50 lb. - very compact weight and hard on the back to get it into the receptacle, as well has up and down to finish the rest of the hitching. We only used the bathroom as a closet and carried water so we didn't have to dump, though our preferences on that may change, especially with preschoolers coming along sometimes! Hoping that we can just get in and go with a small motorhome!

Thanks for all the suggestions! I was hoping there was a true 21 or 22 ft. unit out there somewhere, with the cab over bed for the kids.
