I’ll add my experiences in case it helps you. One thing I haven’t seen mentioned above is drivability. I recommend test driving a Class A and Class C. I think you’ll find the Class C much easier to drive, relatively speaking.
We had an F250 pulling a travel trailer for several years. As you know, driving a big truck makes for a quiet and comfortable towing experience, along with having all the modern features. We sold that and were thinking about a motorhome of some sort.
My parents had a Class C years ago that we borrowed. Easy to drive right from the start but very noisy from the house area. My parents now have a gas Class A, so we borrowed that to try out. I did NOT like driving it. A ton of wind noise and it wandered easily from cross winds, in addition to requiring constant steering correction. I felt like I had to shout to talk to my wife.
I installed a steering stabilizer for them, which helped a lot. There are other mods you can do as well. But in short, I highly advise doing test drives because the behind the wheel experience is very different among different RVs. I could not imagine myself putting long hours behind the wheel of a gas Class A.
In the end, we ended up with a Renegade Super C (not saying you should do this - just to share what we chose).
