They are built on a van chassis. It also goes by the name Mini-Motorhome. Their length varies between 20 and 35 feet. They are also available with either gas or diesel engines.
In this section we are going to discuss how they are constructed and equipped. We are also going to review the PROS and CONS of owning one.
They are built on a Gasoline powered van chassis everything from the cab back is added by the RV Manufacturer.
The Diesel Super C RV (like the Renegade XL Super C pictured above) is built on a Heavy Duty Diesel powered chassis everything from the cab back is added by the RV Manufacturer.
A Super C can be just as luxurious as a High-End Class A RV.
Because of its price, the standard Class C motorhome is ideal for cost conscious RVers and families just getting into the RVing lifestyle.
One unique feature this RV has is the additional bed located above the cab which is great for kids or adults (who don't mind climbing a ladder to go to bed).
We have owned two Class C motorhomes during our 40+ years of RVing. The first one we had was a smaller early 70s model which our family camped with for several years. We sold that smaller one and turned right around and bought a larger early 80s Class C.
In 1986 we took 5 weeks vacation and traveled from California to the World's Fair in Canada. We traveled with 3 adults and 2 kidlets. Amazingly this RV never felt crowded at all. Our family still has fond memories of that trip. As with any RV there are Pros and Cons to owning one.
