Newbie introduction (and some general questions)

My only caution would be to be very careful about weight distribution on a long Class C. Before we bought our Class A, we looked at a few 31' C's on the the E450 chassis. The amount of rear overhang on many of them scared me to death.

I dug deep into the books on one of them (a Forester 31) and was amazed to see the empty weight numbers. The holding tanks and fresh-water tank were all aft of the rear wheels, and even with them empty, the rear axle was within 200 pounds of its weight limit.
