Next up is the Class C RV. The front end resembles a pickup truck, however the similarity ends there. There is a sleeper extension over the cab and the back end appears like any type of motorhome you are most likely accustomed to. Basically a cargo box with windows, but much prettier. The Class C has all the amenities of home. A kitchen, bath room, bedroom and living-room. You can stay in a Class C.

The next step up is the Class A RV. This is roomiest of all motorized RVs. These motorhomes are like a mini one room flat. They are completely self contained.

When you determine that an RV could be for you, attend a Campervan program or two.
