I think this is a question a lot of us who want to buy an RV ask ourselves. I have looked at numerous class B and small Cs in the last year. Just looked at a great 26 foot C. Everything was right about it but the size. I want the size of a B with the openness of a C. The big issue my wife and I keep coming back to is do we want more of a travel van or a camper. When we are traveling to look at these units we take imaginary trips and talk out what our expectations are from the vehicle we would be in. Bottom line, how do you want to use it?
I just met a lady who has a B with minimal features (porta potti,no gen, no heat, no stove or fridge, roof AC) and says she camped all over the west and absolutely loves the simple life. To each their own.
