A class A motorhome may look like a good deal, but they are nightmares to drive. There is a reason you see them doing 50 in the right lane most of the time. The frames they were built on were often not designed for that wide and unbalanced of a load. Sure, flat landing in Florida or the Northeast is okay, but hit the mountains or windy plains, and you are going to wish you had something easier to manage.<div><br></div><div>Another thing on the maintenance; it's not easy to find a place that will work on them. They need big enough bays, and the right tools to work on 'em. I've heard horror stories of people stuck for weeks in the middle of nowhere, paying thousands to get their class A towed to a RV dealer hundreds of miles away.</div><div><br></div><div>A class B typically won't have that issue, since most dealers DGAF what the inside looks like.<br><div><br></div><div>Some of the smaller ones (a Trek, the GMC from the 70s, Those sprinter based Via things) are a great compromise, but are hard to find, especially in good shape (and the Via is 100k, so that kinda runs antithesis to this site).</div></div>
