Class B Motor Home RV
A camper van looks like a family van that has been stretched out.
One of the perks of this kind of RV is that you can park it in a regular parking spot in the mall or in front of the local mini-mart.
So you don't have to tow the family car behind your rig.
Stopping at campgrounds is much less costly then hotels.
Fees range from 20 to 50 dollars a night and you don't have to eat all meals in restaurants or pack and unpack at each stop between home and your destination.
Tent camping fees are less expensive than those for RV's.
We checked that out in Louisiana, California, Iowa and New York.
From what we've heard from other Rvers that holds true all over the country.
Never been Rving? I'd suggest you rent a class B motor home RV for your first trip.
That way if you decide Rving is not your thing or find that you need longer mobile home, you won't be stuck with the van camper.
Actually I'd suggest a couple of short trips and one of two or more weeks before you lay out money for a motor home.
This class of RV drives just as easy as the family van, they don't burn much more gas than your S.

and many can be parked in a normal sized garage.
A friend we met in Canada uses his class B motor home RV as his everyday family vehicle.
A new class B RV starts at somewhere around $58,000.
Of course if you add extra amenities the cost is higher.
However you can get loans with a 15 year term.
You may want to consider purchasing a pre-owned camper van.
You can save big money and get an almost new RV.
However don't buy one sight unseen, have it checked by a mechanic and make sure all appliances and systems are working.
Search the web for manufacturers if you want your camper customized.
You can also locate owners and dealers that are selling class B RV's.
Next you have to decide whether you want a gasoline or diesel powered van camper.
Diesel, though more per gallon to buy gets much better mileage than gasoline, which is very important when you drive long distances.
The B class motor home plus or BC class motor home is more luxurious than the class B van but smaller and not quite as fancy as a class C coach.
Whether you show up at a campground with a class B camper van, a luxury motor coach or a tent, you will generally find a warm welcome from fellow RV'ers.
