More of the cab is Ford (a good thing, I think) and there are several inherent convenience and safety advantages like air bags, doors and warning alerts. I have a 29 foot class A and have found it to be a terrific balance of size, load capacity and features. But that’s just me. Lots of folks love the little As. Good luck!

To each his own I guess.

We looked the C Class and we didnt like it.... The cockpit is way too small. Im 175# and 5-10 tall and I had a hard time getting in an out of the driver seat to go in the back (so im not a big guy and it was a problem). Plus my wife felt costerfobic in the C class between the tight cock pit and other overhanging bunk.

Plus We like the big front windshield of our Axis, plenty of room for us in teh cockpit, plus a work station!

Another important point was many of the small C class were more stripped down IMO. They had the old style windows, Most were white (we like the beige color better), Smaller holding tanks, only one or two TV (we have 3).

My Axis floor plan has 70 cu foot of cargo so that was a good selling point for me.

Plus IMO the Axis / Vegas just looks better. More upscale compared to a C Class.

We get many people (in parking lots, Trail heads or shopping centers.) that ask us about it and tell us how they like the way it looks.

I guess thats why they sell many diff RV's at diff price ranges.
