At the time of this video I was buying a Class A motorhome, so I actually prefer the Class A to the Class C in my situation, but here are some of the compelling reasons you may want to look at a Class C RV as well. Subscribe to Camper Report: bit.ly/CamperReportYT

Here is my tip... Learn to do your own RV maintenance and use a good car maintenance management program ( I use Automotive Wolf car care software ) to track and monitor it all. It also tracks all my parts, expenses and creates a detailed vehicle maintenance log. After RV'ing for over 10 years I've saved thousands by doing most of the maintenance myself and there is a lot of it on an RV! A small roof leak can cost you thousands in repairs so I check my roof at least twice a year. Keep on top of the maintenance and you'll save money and be RV'ing for years :)

For those who are complaining that he loses credibility when he is planning to buy a class A; he made it pretty clear up front, and at the end, tjat recognises there are good reasons to choose the class A as well. As I am in the beginning stages of deciding on an RV design for retirement, I find videos like this quite helpful. I watch a lot of them, what he has to say is generally pretty consistent with what others have said.

We don't have a Bedroom that saves Us 8 to 10 feet of length. We're 28' long rather than 38. Easier to Park and Drive. Depending on Highway driving or City Driving Our Honest Millage is as low as 7.5 Mpg and up to 10 Mpg on the Highway. Mind Ya We have Big Mountains to deal with here in Alaska. like to help Ya out if Questions should arise. Be Well. P.S. Our Bed comes down from the Ceiling.

Exactly! He even said that he has another video the goes over the advantages of Class A over C. There is no better type. It depends on what you want. Personally I'd never want to drive around in a monster Class A. Maybe a very small Class A. I prefer a Class C. And the 5th wheel is not an option because it's illegal to have people and pets in it while driving. I don't have the heart to force my pets to sit in a back seat all day when I could get a Class C or A.

We have a 35-foot class A and we are planning to trade it for a Travel Trailer. Why? Too noisy inside at highway speeds. The V-10 engine sits right between the front seats and lots of noise penetrates the engine cover. Almost impossible to hold a conversation. A pusher Class A would not hve this problem but they cost a fortune. It's like driving a HOUSE. Yes it is hard to cool the coach with the chassis AC. Good if it has a real door to close off the back half. A wreck can be real bad because stuff from all the cabinets can pummell you. Often need to tow a car so you can see sights near your campground. So anyway we are switching to a SUV pulling a travel trailer.

This is a great video! I watched it last year before we bought our 32 foot class C. The cheaper cost of repairs is a BIG reason for getting a Class C. Yeah, that van front end sticking out of the front of your motorhome isn't sexy, but when we had an F0 tornado hit our RV storage lot and we lost a passenger window. We did not have to go to an expensive RV repair place ($150.00 an hour...ouch). We just called up Satellite auto glass and because the repair was less than our deductible we just paid out of pocket!

Class cs are just more pickup like in the the operation, maintenance and driving than the class a. The thing I like better about motorhomes than towables is we feel like the vacation starts when we load up to leave and everyone is already enjoying the rv already , the bathroom, fridge, sink, couch, beds etc. The towables you have to wait til you are stopped or set up to start using them.

Add this: I just purchased a Class C after having owned a Class A. I found that the C was easier to keep centered in the road than with the A. It might have had something to do with the fact that driving a Class C was like driving a car, and for some reason, my eyes found it far more difficult to keep the Class A centered.....might have had something to do with depth perception differences. In any case, the Class C was a breeze to keep the vehicle in the center of the road.

Eh, I got quite a few years experience on this fine young lad. I started out in 1 man pup tent, then the 8 person stand up tent, (I still own a tent that attaches to the back of an SUV even though I've only used it once in 8 years) then on to pop ups, then to travel trailers, then Class C and finally Class A's. EVERY step was a step up for a plethora of reasons. I even started out dead set against slide outs and now I have 3. :) I have a motorcycle / scooter carrier for non towing trips and I have 2 different trailers depending on if it's a motorcycle, car, or motorcycle - golf cart trip. But, once again, it's every man for himself and whatever suits you. I know I am never planning on "un-climbing" this ladder.

This is a valuable discussion. I'm convinced that a commercial duty truck chassis (medium duty) is the best foundation for a class C. Custom building your own floor plan with quality appliances and finishes is just unbeatable. Then you still have the towing capacity.

My Aunt and Uncle bought a Class A and a tow vehicle. Mom and Dad bought a 4 wheel drive van and a Beach House. The Class A was always forced to stay in large RV parks where everyone is parked side by side. The Van could go anywhere. It could go to smaller campgrounds with shower houses and bathrooms. It could go into the wilderness with a collapsible shower/toilet house. It could also go to a nice hotel with the money saved on fuel alone. And in the end, it could park in front of a Beach House that appreciated several hundred thousand dollars, while the Class A depreciated several hundred thousand.

Spurious effect: Great, public bathouse, also seaching for a pay laundromat. Why do all that when everything you need is with you, a clean shower large enough for anyone. your own washer/dryer, large capacity holding tanks, and enough power reserves if you want to boondock. We could argue points all day long, it is still up to each individual/couple to decide which floorplan, class and price point works for them.. The idea that this works for me, so it is best for you is really archaic and presumptuous.

I bought a 30' Class A because it felt right. I also like being able to level it from the drivers seat. I don't like climbing into a bed at my age of 65, I usually just fall into bed (not out of it). Any kid that jumps in front of my RV had big problems before I hit them, so I don't worry about the area right in front. I do like being up high enough to see troubles way on down the road before I am involved. I asked my wife what was her main consideration in an RV and she said 'the bath room'. We rented a Class C before we bought the Class A, and when I used the bath room in the Class C, I could not pull my pants up without hitting my head on the door. The Class A has more than enough room to 'take care of business' without lumps on my head. My older model ('98) Class A was surprisingly cheap and I have done quite a bit to modernize it. The new ones are stupid expensive, and for first time buyers like me, I wanted to make sure two old folks could do this. We will be full-time in December!

So far best experience I have ever had. Although I have suggested to others buying Motorhomes to look into the Class C with the pop outs. It seems that the class C can be parked just about anywhere. Parking my Class A it takes some skill levels and you will always be looking for room to fit between those tight spaces.

I myself am between the two, class c is sounding more convenient in many ways including maintenance in my own research. As a single man I love my space but a huge class a as much as I love their looks and size isnt practical, though if I had money to burn why not. I am leaning towards class c...some VERY nice ones around these day's with space to spare. Great video.

With a diesel pusher, you can usually find a semi-truck repair shop that can handle the repair as the engines are often the same! As for getting ripped off it always helps to do your research and know your vehicle. Calling the manufacturer can also help in a lot of the cases!

The big reasons for our choosing of a class c are: Doors for the passenger and driver is so convenient especially with are dog platform in front for our pet. The second reason is class c are generally not as high as class a and if you travel on back roads a lot it is no problem getting under some of the lower overpasses! That's all folks!

We have owned every type of camping RV except a pop-up and frankly my favorite is still our 5th Wheel. Our motorhomes were okay but they lacked the storage and roominess found in out 5th wheel. Pulling the 5th wheel was easy too. We are between RVs, and my husband and I both agree we would go back to a 5th wheel for full timing or long excursions.

if that is one of the main reasons for buying a Class "A", then check the super C's,That is a "C" on a freightliner or spartan chasis, they used to be called diesel Pullers. Similar price point to class A, but you have the added safety of a big diesel engine, frame, and wheels out in front of you. You can get them as utilitarian or as luxurious as your budget can handle.

That may be true, but the additional towing power and torque which keeps you from "whiteknuckling" it coming down a Long grade is worth it to me. Plus the additional distance you can travel between fillups, and it evens out in the long run. If you are not familiar with some of the long declines in Az, Co, Id, Wa, and even Ca and Or, try just one some day in a gas coach, and feel those muscles clench. Then tell me then if it might not be worth it....

One BIG advantage of a 5th wheel or trailer, is when you breakdown in the middle of no where, and this will happen way more often than you would think, and end up trying to live in a garage lot( or hotel room) for sometimes weeks at a time waiting your turn, at least you would have the motor and home separated. You can usually get the home into an RV park while waiting for repairs. Also finding a mechanic that will not rip you off, as happens way more than you think(they see an RV and assume the owner is rich...right?) in the small towns you end up in, is challenging. It is easier to find someone that will work on a truck, than an large class A RV. They are more difficult, and if you have a diesel, expect to pay way more for repairs. Finally, whichever you get, expect that this nomadic lifestyle will eventually become very stale after doing it for an average 5/7 years. I did this for about 5 years, it had it's good moments, also some incredible nightmares, I never realized, going into it, and most of the friends I made along the road back then, none are still doing it today. So take that, for what it is worth. At the very least, have an escape plan, to return to, when(not if) it no longer becomes all you thought it would be. Not trying to discourage you, I am glad I did it for a while, just trying to put the reality of what does happen, more into perspective for you.

The benefit I was talking about was when a class A or C break down, you either have to find a place that will let you live in it in their parking lot or find a hotel room to wait out the repair. For me, in the past, several times it could take more than a week, in some of these small towns to get to that repair or get the parts. You can not sleep in your car for a week or more. In a 5th wheel or trailer, usually I was always able to get it into a campground, while the truck was being repaired. I started out with a class A, but after several years of having to live through breakdowns, I took the advice of an ol' timer back then, and switched to a 5th wheel. Trying to get a truck repaired, is WAY easier(and usually less expensive) than a big class A. At least, that was my experience. Just some advise, from another, (experienced) ol' timer, now.

Never had any substantial problems or significant expenses, except when we had a blow out because the tires were very worn. Love being all together in there while traveling, and as far as noise, just insulate the cab. Like everything else in life, it's just a matter of choice and personal need. We really enjoy our RV and are choosing to remodel rather than buy a class B or C.

THis is a good video and some really good points. One thing though, I traveled a lot and I didn't see any more RVs broke down vs other vehicles. the most common ones would be cars there ar e so many more of them on the road. Buses I don't see really see too many but see a lot more semis broke down they are the most common on the interstates. I have seen two motorhomes broke down in the last 5 years WAY less than semis and I travel on the snow bird routes I-44 I75 ETC. the best way to NOT break down is to LEARN how to properly maintain your motorhome. I have a class A dodge AVCO all steel tubing and fiberglass body on an international frame under the Dodge name with the 440. I am taking it over Monday to get it all rewired and all checked out. If you do that you will not be stranded anymore than driving any other vehicle. I have seen two buses broke down on the highway one was due to low water it had a safety to shut down the engine and the other was an air brake problem. I have buses a Van Hool an old Greyhound and a GMC RTS . I was stranded on the highway in Wyo. couldn't build up air past 60 a new air compressor was the fix. SO my whole point is. Don't scare people with the (RVs break down all the time) that is simply NOT true.. anything can break down not just RVs. Semis as I said are the most common.

It always seemed to me that that large open window right at the front with nothing sticking out in front of you would give you better visibility. I did drive a Volkswagen bus once, but I have yet to drive any of these RVs myself. So I realize I could be way off when it comes to the reality.

I have only been RVing 13 years and spent the first 9 in a class C while towing a car . That was my "learner' M/H and it taught me a whole bunch about what I thought I wanted and needed . Our second M/H is a class B and have been very happy . It is only 19' and fits in a normal parking spot . The ride and handling is far better and I do not have to drag a car along . Normally it is just Granma and Grandpa and often one Grandchild . Our old class C got between 7-9 MPG with a 35 gallon tank and our newer class B gets between 14 - 17 MPG with a 35 gallon tank . Used to be I started looking for a gas station around 120-140 miles , now 350-400 miles . I have never had the desire to own and or drive a class A . Some are made well , but the entry fee for a well built one is just too far out of our financial plan . People always tell me "you should have bought a new class C instead of a class B " . We have an older Roadtrek and could not be happier . Of corse it depends on how many people you need to haul and or sleep and what you wish to do with your RV . I think class B are about as safe a rig as you can get , as long as manufacturer starts with a passenger van . Older class C need to be checked out if buying used , water leaks are a very common problem . I used to be a fireman and you would not believe how most class C and many class A literally fly apart in even a fairly mild collision . The cabinets often break lose and try to exit through the windshield on a moderate front end impact . Many class A that sell from about $300,000 and up are built much better than the "starter" class A's .

Class C with V10 , easier to park , would be like a sports car of RV's to get around in , but beyond that , I cant think of anymore advantages . Pulling a trailer would be slow and have to watch engine and tranny temps always , and in summer watch out . Poor fuel mileage. . The diesel does everything better than a gas Class C.

My first coach was a Winnebago class C 31ft. gas. Had it for 10 years and loved it. My wife and I decided to go bigger and purchased a Holiday Rambler class A gas. Nice coach but we then got a boat weighing 5600 lbs. I wanted more power so ended up getting a 40ft. Winnebago Diesel Pusher. So this is what I learned; Gas More engine noise and heat in the cockpit. Less power then the diesel however, maintenance is cheaper. It will cost more to repair a diesel when needed. Depending on weight and speed you will need more distance to stop a gas coach. Driving downhill you have to be careful with how you brake. Improper braking will heat your brakes. Activating tow mode helps but not the same as exhaust brake. The diesel pusher has power and is quiet because all the noise is 40 feet behind us. No engine heat in the cockpit, air brakes is a must in my opinion when dealing with weight. I love it when I don't have to touch my brakes to slow me down because the exhaust brake does it for me. No heating the brakes, which means you save your brakes. Smoother ride and stability is awesome. My diesel pusher just feels and drives better then my gas coach, even in strong winds. I also like the Cummins engine. Diesel engines operate with a combustion process that's leaner, burning less fuel than gas engines. The engine has sturdier blocks and cylinder heads, valves, crankshaft, and pistons, which is necessary to dissipate the higher engine temperatures and higher compression ratios attained in a diesel engine. The diesel achieves higher torque at much lower speed, so it's operating at lower rpm. The diesel pusher is a more suitable choice for heavy towing as long as you don't exceed manufacturer towing capacity. Like I mentioned earlier, diesel is more $$ but made to last. There are many beautiful gas coaches out there so get what fits your needs. I love looking at all the coaches out there no matter who the manufacturer is. It's like a hobby to me. In my opinion diesel pusher is the way to go, especially if you are getting something over 36 feet and towing anything over 3,000lbs.

Most of the below comments missed the point. I owned a class A diesel pusher and a gas puller. Here is the real reason why a class A will never be as trouble free as a B or C. In the B and C, the entire cab with all of the dash, air conditioner, instruments , etc are assembled in an assembly line with qualified personnel, who have QA/QC requirements. Schematics are available of the completed assembly. In the class A, the assembler, receives the truck frame which includes the engine and NOTHING else. He then has to make a dash assembly, build an air conditioner vent system with doors for air flow control, wire all of the instruments, connect all vacuum lines, all hydraulic lines and pneumatic lines. Quess what? It is seldom done correctly. The common problems which can and do occur are all of the above. Usually there are no schematics because all models are seldom assembled the same. After 26 years of RV travel all over the USA, from my view, the only way to go is: Class B or C, or travel trailer or Fifth wheel with a proper tow vehicle. Simplicity! I am now on my fifth travel trailer. The evolution was as follows: small trailer, no slide, larger trailer, no slide, larger trailer, one slide. Still larger trailer, two slides. No problems with the different tow vehicles. No problems with any travel trailer because of their simplicity. Those are my thoughts and experiences. Happy RVing!

Travel Trailers and Pickup campers are the way to go- totally agree. High horsepower diesel engines are expensive to fix and maintain (like those found in class A's). If you have a 1 ton pickup, you can do more things with that vehicle- that class A will just sit around until you want to take it out.

Hello there, my Great Dane and I are leaving the traditional way lof living behind due to how atrociously expensive it is to live in Vancouver. We decided that we would like in an RV and we are currently doing our research on which is best for us. One thing about Vancouver is that it is very anti-poor, so the city will often criminalize or over-regulate and drum up fines for people who are inventive enough to think outside the box for living. No parking between this time and that time, no overnight parking in parks, no parking for "large vehicles" (The City calls any vehicle over 7 feet 3 inches tall and over 21 feet long a large vehicle) between certain hours of the day or night, and if you do, you get a substantial fine. I have considered the factors regarding Class A, B, B+ and C. Due to the size of the Class A, alone, it would be highly impractical with regards to this city although I have seen some Class C vehicles as short as 24 or 25 feet in length, the fact I have a dog, climate control inside the RV is of great importance. I considered some Class B and B+ vehicles, but I want my dog to have all the comforts she deserves and more, and moving around without obstructions is important as well. The Class C will be slightly too big for the City's over-regulated, wallet-raping constraints, but there are some short class C vehicles as short as 19, 20, 21 and 22 feet, but even if I got one to comply with the 21 foot length, all class C vehicles are over 7 feet 3 inches in height. The other option is to simply move out of that city, because most neighboring cities are not even close to Vancouver in terms of their near Nazi-style regulations. The types I was told to stay away from were Dutchmen, Coachment, Glendale. The types that seemed good were Sunseeker, Triple E, Jayco, Thor Motor Coach (though there were also some very bad reviews as well as very good ones), but I spoke with a guy who is in an older Triple E and he said you'll get hassled with vehicles over 21 feet. I am also going to need a 4-seasons RV, and one that has linoleum floors, stainless steel sinks and porcelain toilet and has a bathroom with a small tub in it so I can take a bath and soak and one that has a large bed in the back so that automatically makes it so I am not likely getting one that is 18 to 21 feet, but closer to 23 to 25 feet. If Vancouver were not so over-regulated then I would just go for one that is 25 to 28 feet long. Back to research, thanks for your points and thoughts.

Magna Norris Hey there. I hope you take no offense by this, question but are you M or F? I'm F. So this is not a sexest thing on either sex. I just noticed a lot of your comments mirror my opinion on what's happening everywhere with the anti poor ideology. But I'm in the US. I'd like to visit Canada at some point so information from someone who lives there & isn't so Go,Go, Go (Insert Country Here) & is willing to discuss the in's & outs is best to get honest opinions from. Would you be willing to start a email conversation off YT? If not no offense taken. I just don't always, want to put all my questions or opinions on a particular YT video. Makes the KZfaq'r $ Which I don't mind at all really. Or understand why so many ppl do really! YT makes plenty of $! So I don't begrudge the person making the actual video making some $ too. A lot of ppl begrudge people making $ on tgeir videos I dont understand that at all. But I digress. .. also I appreciate the Info on certain topics that stem from the debate over the topics you are interested in because you get lots of info you may not get when ppl don't debate. (More often arguements then debate)after the initial opinions are given which can provide great pros,& cons But then....The people seem to react in a unnecessary way if someone doesn't agree exactly that their opinion is correct. So, That's the reason I asked if you would want to have a dialog off YT. If so let me know, I'd like to pick your brain about your country, area, regulations, & other such topics. Thanks hope to hear from you. Cheers from KY USA!

Hello Miss Kentucky, I am a male, and I do not mind carrying on outside KZfaq. You seldom get the complete truth in tourism brochures. Our country will soon follow suit with yours given Soros owns political leaders.

Floor heat in class c. I don't know about newer Rvs but my older class c has excessive floor heat because the engine is so close. It can be annoying. Especially on hot days. I have heard others speak of this.

for Accessing engine for maintenance I always thought the class c was better, but after i got mine i realized how cramped the engine is and looking at a class A you have access from inside and under it is wide open, i don't know but I'm sure it's easer to replace the spark plug in a class A than in a class C or B.

Class C engine compartment is the same as a truck because it is a truck, with a camper on it. Nearly all Class C engines are easy to work on.

We are truck camper people and if we were to do it again, we would seriously look at expedition box on a F550 4x4. You are right Class C is such a better choice if you travel a lot moving all the time and fuel savings will now become very significant. Christian

Class C has much less storage, and smaller water/black grey tanks. Class C does not typically have heated bays and pipes freeze if you are in a cold weather area.

Great points! Also some class A's have a steel cage built in the cab area (Winnebago)

If you are an RVer and like water toys or fishing boats, Look into Expandacraft, a modular watercraft that stores in small spaces and converts into all sorts of different craft. Oh, and we ship all over the world.
