Motorhome Buying Guide

Figuring out which motorhome class to buy can be a tough task. After all, different types of motorhomes are available with a wide range of features. Schwab’s RV World is here to help you sort it out and make the right choice. We have provided all the information here to help you with your buying decision, so read on for more details.

Class A Motorhomes

Class A motorhomes are the biggest on the road. These large coaches are perfect for a family on the go, or for full-time RVers looking for a comfortable way to travel and explore the country. Class A motorhomes have a distinctive bus-sized profile that allows manufacturers to load these RVs up with some awesome features that travelers love. These motorhomes have plenty of great advantages over other types of motorhomes.

They're equipped with larger engines, the most powerful which are found in “diesel pushers.” As a result, manufacturers are free to include heavier amenities, and these rigs are able to tow more behind them. If you’re looking for a luxury RV, you’ll find the best features in a high-end Class A, and if you need more sleeping space, they have the most you can find in any motorhome layout.

Class B Motorhomes

Class B motorhomes are the smallest class of motorhomes with a profile roughly equivalent to a large van. The biggest plus to traveling in these motorhomes is the easy driving profile. These campers should feel pretty familiar to anyone who’s used to driving a vehicle with a large chassis such as a truck or large van. The compact size also provides the best fuel economy you can find in a motorhome which makes this a favorite vehicle for cross-country travelers.

Class C Motorhomes

A Class C motorhome is a balance between the size and power of a Class A model, and the maneuverability and accessibility of a Class B motorhome. These rigs typically fit the size profile of a box truck and have a range of amenities that allow manufacturers to outfit them simply, or luxuriously, depending on your preferences and budget. Class C motorhomes are pretty accessible for most drivers who’ve ever had to drive a moving truck, and they feature spacious living areas like a Class A, but they are a bit more compact.
