Starting my education process....
Awesome forum!!!! been reading it for the past few days. I do like Class B's but they are just outside of my budget, well at least the ones I like. I'm looking at C's since we are 4 (parents ...

Will eventually be my first RV Grayhaupt.
The driving aspect is the easy part. I love driving, even had a CDL for a while. drove bus and truck.
The bad weather and even being sick while on the road is part of the reason we opted for a C. we know that most trips would be with 2 but occasionally 4.
Right now I'm still in the looking/touching phase. From what I have been reading and hearing (from owners I've met) From just overall appearance, 25-27 ft seem about right. Unfortunately as a pair, we have only seen a couple in that range and the Winnebago seem to be the better one. Hopefully the Hersey show will have the other companies I noted so we can compare quality. I was in one RV that I swear if i pushed my finger hard enough i would have put a hole in the bottom of the drawer. I would love to see a coach house but that is a low probability, but Born Free and Nexus are suppose to be there so that will be cool to see.
It is after that and hopefully we get a sense of what we want, I'll start hunting. Since this is a relative unknown, I want to get as much info without sales input, thats why i like the show route.
I have a history of long term ownership of car/vans and hope to do the same with this mega purchase.
I recently started a list of basics that I'll need or potentially need and starting to price them out. I have gotten insurance info on a few RV's.
Even looked into cost of building an RV port to shelter it.
Not a cheap purchase as you noted UGH. This site has been great for info.
