Super-C Comparison

I think he just wants a Super C.

As for the outside kitchen on the Thor 34RB and Nexus 35R... I'll make one for myself in one of the spacious Seneca bays.

I had the outdoor kitchen on my Forest River class C and then again on the Challenger 37ND. I do not have it on the Accolade and to be honest, I don't miss the outdoor kitchen. I have the same grill (Weber Q2200) I used with the Challenger and it works just fine connected into the LP quick connect. Miss the exterior fridge a little but a small cooler and ice pack. takes less space and serves the same purpose (keep a couple beers cool).

Me too. Had an outdoor kitchen on my Winnebago and it was enough to put “no outdoor kitchen” on my shopping list for the next coach. Took up too much space without offering any new functionality.

What? Where did I say the kids would be in the cabover when driving?

Sorry if I was unclear - they'll be strapped in. My oldest boy was in the dinette and could see out it from there. He was looking at trees and bridge underpasses from there.

This thread's not about arguing A vs C for safety. I examined both and did research, and it made sense to me to eliminate the A based on safety. Everyone's risk tolerance is different, and while I respect your opinion, I'd like to keep this thread on topic.

You're welcome to make another thread about C VS A safety if you want and I'd be glad to discuss it there, but please keep on topic!





Topic's on comparing different models of Super C's!

The Seneca bays are so huge! I was in awe of how much storage the Seneca had underneath. That's a major, major plus with the Cs built on the Freightliner chassis.

You are correct. I have a six foot step ladder that lays flat in the drivers side compartments running from front to rear. I then have my sewer stuff in one large supper ware container and fresh water stuff in another that sits on top of the step ladder and those three compartments are at about 2/3 capacity for space. There is the typical side to side pass through but we also have the front to rear pass though between compartments.

The smallest compartment is the one below the fresh water tank and that is the compartment I use for my Weber Q with folding stand and a few other odds and ends.

No matter which Super C you purchase, you are really going to like it. We have had 2 different C's before purchasing our super c last May an Omni XG32, and it is so much nicer to drive than a regular C.
I know this not on your topic, but we stay with C's for the collision safety.

That is one of the reason why we went from a Class A to a Super C. We missed the safe feeling we had with our prior class c.

(Quote)The huge cabover is amazing. The bed is bigger than the competition, there's more headspace, and the window is beautiful. The boys liked looking out it while driving, and I can see us stargazing or watching the sunset from there(Quote)

Your 1st post is where that came from....

Sitting at the dinette or in the theater seating you can see out that window while traveling down the road, it is a very large window.

Couldn't be happier with the 35SF. After realizing in 2015 my new Open Range 323RLS TT was too much crawling around on the ground for set-up and break down plus very limited use underway, I started looking at motorhomes. Two years of research and 14 RV shows later...I bought the Super C for these reasons:


1) Commercial truck cab quality second to none
2) Diesel power second to none
3)Towing capacity of 10K pounds, second to none
4) Mid half bath, second to none
5) Three exit doors, second to none
6) Build quality of Plant 250, second to none
7) Full body paint, second to none
8) Full coach access with slides in at rest areas, etc., second to none
9) Tank capacities, second to none
10) 12.2 MPG with 9.8 MPG towing, second to none
11) Hill climbing ability, second to none.



For every reason one class of RV or floorplan is better for me, there's another reason why it isn't for someone else. I tow an R&R 20' aluminum trailer with an XT5. You don't even feel it back there and you can back up for miles if you need to. The transmission never downshifts on hills and the cab is whisper quiet.


If Thor could build a Class A with this quality of the F550 cab, I'd trade tomorrow. Until then, I'll keep loving the Super C layout. Feel free to PM me if you want my number...I'll be pleased to share everything I've experienced over the past 2 years with the Super C.

Make sure it has hydraulic levelers. and a large inverter. Solar would also be nice.

It’s terrific that you are so happy with your coach. I love that that there are so many models of RV to meet the many different tastes.

I agree with everything posted above.

We've officially purchased a 2021 Magnitude RB34.



We will take delivery either next weekend or the weekend afterwards. The closest one to us in Atlanta is 3 hours away!



We negotiated down to 154k including dealer fees, but not including tax. Tax was killer though - for some reason they charged us 11.25% and indicated we'll get a refund for the difference. I looked it up - we have to pay 2% for AL AND 6.6% for GA tax because of this tax law: https://revenue.alabama.gov/sales-us...out-provision/. - but that's still only 8.6%. We'll figure that out.


I'll post up pictures once we take delivery.

Congratulations!

Everyone has their own reasons for a particular camper purchase.
I can say its the best purchase weve made for comfort and the secure safe feeling while towing.
Oh and the second bathroom was a must for myself to avoid the constant statements of: Im still in there, you left the seat up, Your in there every time I need to use it.

Congrats on your purchase and enjoy.
