What Are Class C Motorhomes?
Class C motorhomes are a type of motorhome built off of a truck chassis. Appearance-wise, they look a lot like truck campers, though Class C motorhomes tend to be a bit bigger. In fact, one could say that a Class C motorhome is like a truck camper designed to be permanently attached to the truck, allowing for more passenger room and amenities. Class C motorhomes feature an alcove that overhangs the truck cab, which is usually used as a sleeping berth or storage compartment.
How Big Are Class C Motorhomes?
Class C motorhomes come in a wide range of sizes. Most models are somewhere between 25-30 feet in length, but it’s not uncommon to find models that are bigger or smaller than that range. In fact, some Class C models referred to as Super Cs, are actually larger than certain Class A models. Given that Class A motorhomes are built off of bus chassis, you can understand how big that makes Super C motorhomes!
Are Class C Motorhomes Easy To Use?
Motorhomes have their own drivetrains rather than being towed by other vehicles. While this means you don’t have to worry about hitching up your RV, bulkier motorhomes can be difficult to handle. How much trouble you have operating a Class C motorhome depends on its size and your experience level. Given that Class Cs are generally smaller and lighter than Class A motorhomes, they are a good choice for those who want more amenities than can be offered with a Class B motorhome but don’t want to deal with having to drive around a big, bulky Class A motorhome.
