Before you hit the road
Which RV fits your trip?
The right RV depends on your route, number of travelers and travel style. Here are the key differences, simply explained.
Meet the types
Three main types
Every RV offers a different experience.
It’s not just about size. Think about driving, parking and how much space you really need inside.
CLASS AThe largest and roomiest
Class A feels a little like a bus: a wide RV with lots of room inside. You’ll usually find a lounge, kitchen, bathroom and shower. It is closest to home—except it moves.
Best for
Large families and groups who want space
Driving feel
More demanding and best on wide roads
What’s great
- Lots of space
- Comfort and storage
Keep in mind
- Bigger and more expensive
- Harder to park and maneuver
CLASS BSmall, nimble and easy to park
Class B is a van converted into an RV. It is compact, easy to drive and gets into places a large RV cannot always reach. Its space is smaller and more minimal, but enough for an RV trip.
Best for
Couples, solo travelers and small families
Driving feel
Like driving a large van
What’s great
- Easy to drive, maneuver and park
- Works for city travel too
Keep in mind
- A little tighter inside
- Less storage space
CLASS CThe great choice for families
Class C is the most common type for family trips. It has a bed above the cab and offers a great balance of space, comfort and price—without being as huge as Class A.
Best for
Families and small groups
Driving feel
Bigger than a van, but fairly intuitive
What’s great
- Ideal for families and small groups
- A useful cab bed above the driver
Keep in mind
- Less spacious than Class A
- Relatively tall
