What Class Motorhome is it?

Considering buying a Motorhome but not sure where to start? First off, that is awesome! Hopefully your excited and not just nervous but if you are let's see if your mind can start to relax and get into vacation mode picturing that RV vacation.

RV'ing is more than just a fun way to camp, for a growing number of the aging millennials and baby boomers, it can become a lifestyle. In both the U.S. and across Europe more and more people are reviving the freedom that comes from RV'ing. Soon you will know that joy.

So first before you walk into the dealership, let's at least get and idea of what type of Motorhome class we want to consider and then do research from there into brands, prices, and reviews.

Class A

These are the largest of all the Motorhomes. Most commonly built on a commercial truck or bus frame, they are luxurious most spacious.  They have a cockpit, which sits in front of a fully functional home on wheels. With a kitchen, living room, and commonly up to 5 slide out sections, this Motorhome is pretty much as close to home in terms of space, amenities, and luxury.
This camper is ideal for those that plan on staying in it for weeks at a time or more and can afford or need the extra space.

Class A Motorhomes are also available in gas and diesel engines.

Class B

A class B Motorhome is basically a large van converted into a camper. They are built on larger van frames and are taller than traditional vans so that people can stand up inside of them. They do not have any slide out components for extra space, but make use of the space it has. They come with many options and are best for people with light distance travel in mind. Think maybe roundtrip with your best friend or a weekend excursion. Some Class B's are built longer with some unique designs that can allow for sleeping up to 4 people. They also have diesel and gas options.

Class C

A class C Motorhome is a mashup of the "A" & "B"  Motorhomes. They are quickly picked out of the crowd as they are the ones that have the overhanging compartment above the driver's cab, most commonly as a sleeper. Class A's come in a large variety of lengths and are available in a number of options to suite most any adventurer. They usually preferred over a Class A by some because of it can feel easier to handle for those used to driving a truck or large van. Many are built to tow, so you can bring a boat, trailer, or a car with your home away from home when you travel.

Difference between Solitude vs. Solutide S - Class

Image
There is little argument to be had, that Grand Design RV's are some of the best made RV's in industry right now. They have many different models, options, floor plans, be it a Travel Trailer, Toy Hauler, or Fifth Wheel, Grand Design puts extra effort into all that they do to make sure that now matter the preference, the camper will be satisfied in their decision to purchase their units and happy with all the extra's that come with them. If their is one thing, that Grand Design does the best though, I would say it is their 5th Wheelers. The Solitude and the Solitude S-Class are both impressive camper lines. But when it comes time to look at them, which one really is better? Is it the Solitude or Solitude S-Class? The winner is not the Solitude S-Class but the Solitude! Both the Solitude and Solitude S-Class, have some great features that are sure to be a benefit to anyone who purchases the camper. From the standard Arctic Package that is better suited to four se...

Black Water Tank RV

ALL Rv's and Campers have three tanks: Fresh Water, Gray Water, and Black Water. The Black water tank is most often than not the smallest of the tanks. Sometimes it is on par with the Gray Water tank, in terms of capacity, but not always. The Black Water Tank is collects both solids and liquid waste. This waste is collected from the toilet(s) in your camper. This is the only tank that will and should be collecting toilet waste. The waste therefore will be human waste as well as the water to flush and whatever toiletries are needed when using a toilet. RV Black water tanks should only be used with special toilet paper and needs to be maintained properly for sanitary reasons at least. Black water tanks tend to collect less waste than the gray water tanks but not always.

RV Battries when not in use

When your camper does not have a battery disconnect, you have two options to maintain the battery life. Disconnect the battery by removing one, (or both) wires. Install a disconnect switch. The best option is usually to use a battery disconnect switch but if you do not have one it is only a small price and a few different install options to make this happen. There are also many YouTube videos out there that show how this can be done that I do not need to add any but I can link some for you. From blade switches that can be installed on the base trim of the RV with out putting holes in the aluminum or fiberglass walls, to switches that sit on the battery. The main goal of the switch or just unplugging the battery is that it will stop a slow drain on the system and kill any residual voltage loss while dormant.
