My wife likes the baby motor homes as she calls them (Class C 25 footers) which are interesting. Particularly the Winnebago View 25V/G/D models. I am leaning more towards the smaller Class A 32'-36'. Winnebago 32T and especially the Palazzo 33.1. I can drive the 40 footers no problem just don't want to. Like to have the ease of parking easily and a little better MPG.


Been to the Belleville show it is close to where we live but have never been to the show in northern IL.


Definitely not in a hurry to buy one. I want to do my homework which doesn't always pan out. For instance purchased a 2015 Silverdo gas engine supposed to pull 9200 pounds but it had a lot of trouble on the hills of Missouri pulling the 7000 pound Laredo so had to switch to a diesel. So sometimes research doesn't always provide the answers to the questions.


Again thanks for the warm welcome.
I wanted a Class A but the wife was hell bent on a Class C. Many discussions on it till we walked into the Vegas/Axis line. A year and a half later we are still loving our Vegas and don't want anything else. Might be worth taking a look at to see if it might meet both of your desires. We also tow our Jeep Wrangler Unlimited everywhere with us. You are probably also used to having a second vehicle with you pulling the TT. But, again, take your time and look at everything you possibly can. Have fun!
