Buying New Class C Motorhome

[NorCal27]

One issue that we have with a class c is getting out of the seats and going back into the coach. Also my wife is fairly cramped and the floor boards on her side run warm to hot. Working on the latter. Both my wife and I are taller, 6-3 for me and 6-0 for her.

I understand, i have to push seat back, steering wheel up, and if I have small shoes on I can slip thru opening between doghouse and seat.i do this some, but I like convenience of driver cab doors, I normally use them. My wife moves freely within cab and camper ,unless our Bassett hound is laying between seats��.enjoy

Putting several hundred pounds on the rear of a 23' C has to take a lot of weight off of your front axle and quite possibly overloads your rear. I suggest a trip to the CAT scale with your bikes loaded.... I think you're in for a rude surprise. Good luck.

Yep its easy to overload rear axle on these even without hitch load.

Both good. We have WB 31G and satisfied

I have a question about the weight limits in the rear when pulling a trailer??? Is it that the hitch to the frame won't support the tongue weight or is it the suspension won't support it ? If it's a suspension problem wouldn't air bags help ? I have a 2500 duramax that I use to haul rock with in a gooseneck dump trailer. When the quarry loads the rock to far forward it makes it squat, I hit the compressor on the air bags and level it back out and it handles fine.

You’re still limited by the weight rating of the springs, axles, and most importantly the tires. The weakest link is the governing factor. If you’re overweight and involved in an injury accident, the lawyers will have a field day with you.
