As a semi truck driver, I would love a Super C. If the engine needs a service, I can take it to any Freightliner, T/A, or Petro truck stop and get the engine serviced, especially since Detroit Diesel engines have warranties at those truck stops. I can maneuver that Super C like a Corolla.

[@SuperWalterF]

As a past RV driving instructor, I’ve been in and driven about 75 different Class-A MHs. Most are near or at the limits of their chassis engineering ( braking, load, towing, etc.). The super Cs often have at least 25% capacity remaining, even with full tanks. The stopping power alone puts me immovably in the Super C camp. Then add the serviceability and cost of repairs ($4000 windshield with 6-week wait time, vs $900 windshield that’s in-stock at many shops). Breakdown and you’re going to be making multiple calls to find a tow firm that’ll even do a class A, and when you find one, chances are it’s going to be a LOT further away. Lastly, I’ve seen both Class A and SupervCs following a wreck and the Super C has generally better survivability ( depends on the manufacturer). So, unless you have money to burn, the Super C is a far better bang for your purchasing AND maintenance dollars.

[@davidescobar5366]

The issue of storage on a Super C can be overcome with it's awesome towing capacity meaning you can tow a garage and then some that will give you alot more storage space. The issue of a Super not being able to park in exclusive class A spaces is not a big deal if you intend to not stay near your RV all day and go out and explore either by foot or another vehicle towed behind the RV. The issue of a Super C having less gas is offset by the fact that there are countless truck stops across the country to fuel up. Also if most of your trips are day trips on your RV then fuel issues should also not be a concern. Super Cs are also growing in interior space. So overall I'd say a class C is a great investment concidering the price.

[@jeeper5264]

Great Video...I am a Super C dude..love the safety, serviceability and longevity factor. Super Cs are less likely to twist and crack floor tiles if you have them and that darn windshield cost and vulnerability on a class A is a downer..lastly I HATE diesel pushers for the fact that IF you have to do major engine work you may have to go in under the bed platform for said service (some models may vary)and having someone INSIDE my coach to service the engine is the deal breaker for m.e..but hey..there is a RUMP for EVERY saddle :)

[@EndlessRVing]

LOL All good points. Thanks for sharing!

[@npe1pas]

it's bad enough to have to service the unit from inside but each time we have had a major service completed, the bedding ends up soiled because a mechanic used the bed to stand or placed tools on it.

[@rschmidt320]

I am a Super C guy. Couple other points: 1. Being towed. If your rig breaks down on the road, a super C is much easier to get towed to a service center. Some tow services (i've been told) won't tow an A Class because of potentially damaging it. 2. Service on the road if you break down. A lot of big rig service center have dispatch drivers that go out and work on rigs that break down on the road. You've probably seen them. With a Super C, they can come out to you and service you also, because you are running the same engine and they can easily get to it. Won't happen with an A Class. 3. Minor accident mitigation. Put a cattle guard on the front of your Super C, just like a big rig, and that deer you hit won't set you back thousands of dollars in repairs.

[@EndlessRVing]

Thanks for the info.

[@patbullard9276]

Regarding your last point, I agree and will cost less and take less time for repairs.

[@sgthawkeye]

Great video and I'm all in on the Super C. Regarding the Super C servicing vs Class A (gas or diesel) is the fact that with a diesel in service, the mechanics have to tear apart your bedroom and in the gas coach, the mechanics are tearing apart your front living area. My point being that with basically any type of Super C, the mechanics are working outside your coach while you are still able to enjoy the living space inside.

[@EndlessRVing]

Thanks for sharing

[@bob3274]

Great Video! We're Super C owners and prefer it over Class A's. We like the way it handles on the road, servicing is a breeze, and pulling a stacker trailer eliminates any storage shortage issues.

[@sailingcarat4054]

We are about to pull the trigger on a Newmar Super C and will haul a stacker to track days around the US. We’ve never hauled a stacker. Do you have any advice or suggestions for hauling a stacker. It’s a bit intimidating lol

[@floridareedsreviews]

I've driven busses professionally, both the big tour busses and the Gretch-style busses. Personally, I prefer the truck-style busses, so I have to say that I prefer the Super-C.

[@brustar5152]

The new Super C's being marketed now are built on the same chassis and powertrain, 9300HP/less than 100olbs tq, as your typical school bus. Picture yourself behind the wheel of that loaded with kids to approximate the full wet weight of a Super C and then picture you attempting to tow a 20,000lb trailer behind that and keeping up to traffic on even the slightest of grades, Any bets you'd not find that a pleasant driving experience?

[@floridareedsreviews]

@@brustar5152 I've driven a bunch of college kids from Logan UT to the SLC airport, asking with all of their luggage in both a tour bus and in a Gretch bus, touring a trailer. I prefer the super-c.

[@kenmccalla1750]

We are first time buyers and just purchased a 33 ft dynamax Europa. One of the biggest reasons was the size was small enough to fit into more campgrounds and I may be wrong but the rig looks like it could handle rough dirt roads better than a class A.

[@user-oq2if6nx2j]

A couple of comments on this one: 1) when they discussed towing capability they omitted the key reason a Class A or diesel pusher (engine in the rear) might be able to two less and that's because the engine/motor is sitting behind the rear axle. The rear axle is rated as so many pounds so you can't be running a stacker trailer (2 vehicles) behind a diesel pusher which has the engine weighing down the rear axle. It's all about axle ratings and whether or not you have one axle or you have two and what their rating is regarding the weight they can support. 2) on the driveability issue, one reason the Super C feels more stable is that it has the weight of the engine on top of the front axle and then the weight of the Generator, water/waste tanks, heater, etc on the rear axle which is more in balance than a pusher which has most of it's weight on the rear axle. RV manufacturers will move up the generators and other items like batteries, etc towards the front of the coach to create more balance, generally speaking the Super C will feel a little more reassuring and you'll be a little more confident while driving one. 3) and one last point, you need to determine what you are going to use this vehicle for, how many people will be in it etc. If your main destination is to a resort with all the amenities then a Class A can make sense. If you want something that makes life on the road and maybe going into some challenging spaces the Super Cs under 38 ft are easier to navigate. A 45ft Class A can be a challenge even for the experienced driver. And the Miles Per Gall difference can be enormous between a Super C with the Cummins L9 engine (usually under 38ft) and the DD13 or Cummins X12 or X15 (usually in the 40ft plus Class A's. Be safe out there!!

excellent points. we think there are travelers and there campers. we seldom stay anywhere over a couple of days so the super C is great. if staying months I would just get a fifth wheel. But what i miss most from my former class A is the Air Ride suspension. that is a joy going down the highway.

Great Video. I sold my 42’ Diesel Pusher last year and in about 6 weeks will take delivery of my 2022 Renegade Classic 45CMR. I think it’s the best for me and my family. It’s a bath and half, 2 pull out couches and an over head bunk. Add the driving comfort for long trips and we are in love. Super C for me as far as I can see into the future.

[@billallen7468]

Great videos, keep it up! I definitely prefer the Super C. Another couple of pros for the Super Cs is getting them towed. Tow truck drivers do not like Class As, they are hard to hook up, sometimes need special equipment. They tow regular trucks all the time. Some of the Super Cs have tandem rear axles instead of a tag axle. Also I do not care for the entrance on most Class As, climbing around the passenger seat. As for the floor space, I would get a 45 foot Super C over a 38 or 40 foot Class A.

[@louiswatson6227]

Great show guys, I've been driving big rigs for over forty years even drove full buses but not that long but me personally, I'd go with a Super C anyday over a Class A yeah, yeah more capacity for fuel, more storage, I get it but I've seen the horrible accidents with these busses and they're not pretty, for me safety is my #1 deciding factor plus i can feel the rd you feel more grounded but to each his own, keep em coming guys!

[@hotrodgs]

As my wife is handicapped and 74 we are looking for a super c , simply because of the accessibility , the side door makes a ton of difference when toting groceries up the steps . Also because of the servicing ease of the engine compartment .

[@denniscaling1796]

Super C has my vote. P 4 chassis is The best chassis by far and the 505 hp 1850 pounds of torque.

[@EndlessRVing]

Thanks for sharing Dennis.

[@brustar5152]

Yeah man! Now we're talking a real "Super C" The ones being marketed now are more frequently the International/Freightliner class 5/6 medium duty chassis with the drive train of a 2500 series P/U and there is no way those will tow anything like 20,000lbs comfortably, or even safely.

[@divadyrdnal]

If you have a diesel pusher and it reaches 10+ years old, the serviceability and number of service centers of the super C class (truck chassis) will become apparent. If you trade coaches often, get what you like! My 12 year old diesel pusher was great, but the rear radiator blocked engine servicing and it really was a problem to find a RV mechanic shop that will repair it, especially while on the road…we are Super C shopping currently

[@dandinhofer9240]

Hi. Love your channel. (2) questions. If the Class A gasoline engine chassis has a drive line running North-South how is that rendered in the positive column regarding cargo capacity (limited pass through) as compared to the Super C neg? Question #2. Why do RV camps exclude or deny access to a super C if any regular class C Ford E350/450 chassis falls under commercial box truck applications throughout the nations freight servers. Class A's RV diesel pushers are basically Greyhound buses with gussied up fiberglass front and rear end caps distinguishing them from their workhorse Greyhound cousins. What gives????

[@rickr9990]

Good video - pros and cons to both, but super c fits us best. Safety and serviceability are top priorities. Picking up our 2022 Verona 36 VSB in about a week!

[@messenger8139]

Hi Izzy and MJ, Great to see you. I'd like to get into answering the questions that you posed. If money was not an object and you were able to purchase a Newell or a Prevost with tag axle turns, I really challenge you to compare that to any class Super C with regard to ride. And the interior quality of your highest and Super C still does not compare to the quality of any Newell or a Prevost. but I guess that's not really fair because the most high-end Class A's cost a lot more than most high-end Super C's. And of course there's a whole other class that you did not discuss called Expedition vehicles. I guess they are specialized Super C's, Unimogs and all.

[@agratefulsoul2816]

We have been full timing on our Renegade Verona VSB for about 7 months now. Absolutely love it (for all the reasons you talk about) buy especially when it comes to boondocking. We have camped on many places that would have been prohibitive in a class A. I have not had an issue with storage. Interior space depends on the floorplan, and many more super Cs are now offering opposing slides, more than one bath, etc. Our 2017 build quality is superb. We both drive, and even after a long driving day, we are not as exhausted as we were after driving a class A for the same time. We do a lot of boondocking, so the tank capacity is huge for us. Just did an upgrade to Lithium batteries to give us more capacity in that regard. BTW, we travel with 3 large dogs. Long story short, we love our Super C!

[@EndlessRVing]

So awesome. Thanks for sharing!

My wife & I are looking at the Renagade Verona also , however we are concerned about the 350 hp , we live in Colorado & plan on using it to Boondock on BLM lands . How’s the power towing on steep passes ( mountains ) ? We’d prefer a 450 hp . Thx for the info & safe travels 👍

@@bobmariano3731 hey I drove a semi all over the west. My truck had a 350 hp Cummings and it got me over any pass just fine.

[@user-3tf67bk46u]

@@douglassellers7528 Ya, it's amazing how big hp is promoted in vehicles that weigh way less than half many a semi can weigh. It's not crucial to do 75 mph up a mountain. I guess for those who think it is though, well.. there's a 600+ hp 2200+ ftlb torque engine out there with your name on it. I suspect the main breakdown in decision making is not understanding the significant difference in torque availability. They are used to what 350 hp means in a gas job and can't relate to what amount of work can be done when you've got big block truck diesel torque that's propelling you up those mountains. But at least as RVing becomes more popular, drivers are becoming more informed all the time.

[@wesalexander2693]

Speaking of "Super", this is another Super video, guys! Great topic, spot-on analysis. I concur with your views. There are some strong reasons for going with a Super C, but storage is a huge issue for us, maybe we have too much "stuff", but much of it we consider essential for camping (glamping). As for serviceability and access to the engine of a Class A, I've thought that was a concern too, but when talking to a tech at a local Cummins shop recently when our coach was in for an engine related recall, I asked that question - they didn't think it was an issue especially with the side mounted radiator on the DS and other Class A's that have a similar configuration.

[@timaz1066]

I have a 2000 Monaco dynasty on a roadmaster S series chassis and I love the way it drives. As far as safety, you just have to keep your head out of the cockpit and pay attention to your driving no different than anything else.

[@sheltermutts4185]

Service is a huge issue. By way of example my ford diesel truck had an alternator problem that left me stranded in Boise a couple of years ago. I coasted into a Bretz RV lot and was glad it was there. Not only would they not help me, they threatened to tow me away rather than sell me a battery or jump me. Lucky for me there was diesel truck repair facility across the street that did help me. So my choice for my next RV will include my experience and it will certainly not be something that needs to get fixed at Bretz RV.

[@gregmichael7693]

Driveability is tops. My wife won't drive a class A anymore.

[@EndlessRVing]

Yes driving a Super C is pretty sweet.

[@justwag9750]

I have driven and spent a lot of time in both. I like the way the C drives, rides, handles, and the power more than an A. Yet once I get to my destination I prefer the room and storage of the A over that of the C. There are some really nice custom C being built I watched a review of a 1492 Coachworks Class C that impressed me. I have spent way more time in Class A but recently Class C has won my vote. I put 80,000 miles on an Class A motorhome. And it is more like driving in a "captains" chair as he said in this video, yet from the maintenance side of things, the way the Super C handles, and the fact that just calling the closest truck stop if you have a problem with a Class C and the mobile repair person will come to service your drivetrain in the Class C where when the water pump went out in my Class A in bum f&^% nowhere land I had to wait for 36 hours for RV place to open and half a day for someone to come out. In Class C I could have had a water pump in hours because almost every truck stop with a service department carries or can get from another truck stop most parts for the drivetrain. Safety and service outweigh the storage and extra room. I didn't always feel that way yet I do now.

[@stewartdunkley4108]

I am firmly in the Super C camp but am slightly biased because I have one. It is a 2004 Gulfstream 6340 Kodiak C5500 chassis with a Duramax diesel. Old yes, not as glitzy yes but affordable. Repairs are easily attainable and many I can do myself. These new machines are fabulous but the cost is far outside the reach of many would be RV ers. With 10k pound towing capacity I can easily haul my trailer with 2 horses and a Harley and all our gear from Canada to Florida and still get around 10 mpg. For us it is the perfect solution and we have enjoyed many, many miles of travel in it!!

[@JeffTapolci]

Great video. Like most other things, the choice depends on needs and wants. We had a 2018 Dutch Star and now have a 2022 Renegade Classic class 8 chassis. We don't see us ever going back to a DP. While driving an SC, stability is second to none, especially when towing a Toad or enclosed trailer (40,000 lb). The drivability is also fantastic. We also drove non-class 8 Renegade, and it was nice, but it did not drive like its big brother. Not all SC are created equal. Regarding the cons you mentioned in the video, we felt those were unimportant, and we're good trade-offs. Most trucking companies will tow an SC over a DP because they are familiar with towing that type of vehicle. Most truck stops also have repair facilities to service and support an SC-type vehicle. Another negative of an SC is the turning radius. It is not as great as on a DP, but you have to adjust and plan for it. Another thing we noticed is our SC is quieter while driving (outside the engine and wind noise). We do not have the squeaks (plastic rubbing) like our Dutch Start. The Dutch star and the Renegade Classic are at the same level to build quality; however, our SC costs more than our DP new.

[@bobmariano3731]

Great points & advice ! Thx 👍

[@brustar5152]

But, your Renegade built unit is not a typical Super C with your dedicated class 8 chassis. It will have far more Hp and Tq than the Super C's being marketed now. The super C's showing up at RV sales places today are actually class 5 & 6 units with the same engines and drivetrains 2500 series P/U's are now equipped with, such as 300/320 Hp and under 1,000lbs torque and along with their wet weight, will not be noted for towing 20,000lbs either comfortably or efficiently. That tow weight being given to these lesser chassis will come back to bite them when owners attempt to tow a stacker behind and wonder why their 6/8 spd Allison has got them in the red range on the tach to just climb a minimal grade while attempting to not become a rolling road block for everything from Volkswagon beetles to 30 year old gas winnies passing them and giving them the middle finger salute.

[@doylekstewart]

Good discussion! thanks for starting it. I have a couple other factors that sway my preference to the super C: 1) I like having the extra bed over the cab for guests. Class A's do not have that, except in a gasser which is not an option due to capacity and towing, without blocking access through the main door. 2) IMHO a super C feels more like I am driving my house around while a class A makes me feel like I live in my [very large] car with the entrance being in the cockpit.

The question you have to ask is how long will you drive at a time ? I drove trucks, for the long distance and time Super C works best for me. If you only drive 3 or 4 hours maybe the class A works will. To me it will be about the safety and the miles you drive in a day. Great video 👍👍

[@larryhudson3930]

Excellent issues to consider! Good points. Seemed the comparison was more with Diesel Pusher Class A's vice "Class A's." We own a Class C and have considered moving to a gas class A or super C. The point made about some resorts only allow Class A's, isn't an issue for us because there are plenty of RV campgrounds out there. The CCC is a real plus for most Super C's for us. Seems the Super C's are more expensive. Plus, we want a bath and half if we ever get rid of our class C (Entegra Esteem 29V). thanks, excellent video.

[@npe1pas]

We have a Class A but are interested in a Super C as a replacement. The reason for replacement is that Atlanta lacks service facilities for Class A equipment. There is one chain that caters to the high end customer but it is nearly impossible to get a service advisor to call you back to schedule service due to their limited facilities. It would be so much nicer to be able to call my local Freightliner repair shop to get the annual services completed.

[@melissal3383]

We have a Super C. We found a 34’ because we are hikers & love maneuverability. We love state parks. I worked in a hospital so safety was HUGE!! I’m a petite woman & I’ve driven it everywhere! These are not investments, they are toys. We considered buying a lot in an RV resort but chose to buy a true sticks & bricks winter home in Florida. Many resorts have a 10 year rule & though we bought a new RV, i did not want to deal with the rv age factor. Besides, I feel the RV is nice but a true winter home is much nicer in MHO.

You’re talking about the engine noise, it doesn’t bother us, a Diesel engine sound sound is music to our ears. As far as Resorts, we don’t need all of the bells and whistles, nor the bling.

I agree. All windshields collect rocks and will break but those huge flat class A's wind shields are more likely to catch rocks and break. I hope they design super C's so the refrigerators can be easily removed via the smaller side entry door. I see that 2022 Showhauler had a good sized 19cuft residential fridge.

[@marclorentz5288]

A seller of a Class A, says that due to Class A is on a bus basis it is much more convenient on the axles. Because are build in that way that people can sit comfortably. A truck does not matter so much, it is just freight. Addtionally if you have a super C in Germany (Europe) you will not have the safety advantage. Because over in Europe the trucks don't have a engine hood. The engines are below the driver.

We love our class A DP, (which we have) especially with the storage capability under the coach. While love the big windshield but not a fan of replacement cost. The super C does seem more durable tho..

[@jims367]

We've owned both, Super C is the one for us.

[@roydavis2242]

I was gonna say the Class A windshield is great, until you break one. It kinda makes sense why Class A windshields are more susceptible to breaking. That nose sticking out of a Super C offers some protection. I am a Class A guy but I have considered a Super C a few times. I'd feel more comfortable driving a Super C to Alaska than my Class A.

[@roadwarrior37]

I have driven my 2021MODEL 4061 SUPERSTAR this year 21k mileage , and have a 2022 Explorer coming in shortly. I agree with most of your comments. For me , first and foremost was safety along with serviceability. Both of these models are of high quality which you would agree. Because of availability they have better resale value . I like seeing all the different types of RV’s but I’m definitely Team Super C.

[@EndlessRVing]

Thanks for sharing!

[@thyhangman]

Switching it up just to experience something different or has something about the Superstar disappointed, that you wouldn't mind sharing?

[@roadwarrior37]

@@thyhangman I have no disappointment in owning the superstar , my wife loves all the storage inside and the light colored cabinets. I’m changing because Newmar doesn’t use the Cascadia chassis or I would be buying that. I need more horsepower to haul a large trailer. Newmar is an awesome company. There’s so many things that the Superstar beat the Verona in making my decision which is both using the M2 106 CHASSIS.

[@roadwarrior37]

@@thyhangman I didn’t mention you can’t compare the Newmar super c to the renegade Explorer , chassis so different.

[@bobmariano3731]

Hey Jim, what’s the difference in their chassis ? ? My wife & I plan on getting a “ Show Hauler “ 37-40 ft but prefer at least 450 hp engine . Verona Renagade only come in 350 , With your experience what type of chassis would you prefer ? ? We plan on towing our 2019 Navigator behind it also & Boondock . Trying to find out as much info about Super C’s & the specs ! Thx 👍⚾️

[@jasonclift7253]

Great info again guys - We are leaning towards a Super C at this point mainly because of safety and getting it worked on and serviced - Thanks guys !

[@johngaudet6316]

It will get worked on less because it's a truck not a deisel pusher.

[@Gdesign959]

Great video. I learned a ton watching this video.

Two of the most important facts about RVs no reviewer ever mentions is wood frame or steel frame and what's the roof made of if it leaks will the walls rot inside

[@denniscaling1796]

Thanks for the information. Love your channel..!

[@EndlessRVing]

Thanks for watching! Much appreciated.

[@xToddmcx]

I just drove a 26 foot box truck across the country (26 foot is the box length, not the truck length), towing a car. IIRC it was an International chassis. It was a Penske, so it was optioned fairly well. Adaptive Cruise control, lane departure, collision mitigation. While that stuff certainly helped, possibly even prevented an accident, after 3 days I got out of that thing and hoped I would never have to do it again. I'm certainly not going to buy one and drive it around for fun, which is what a Super C is. So I get that people are buying them now just because they look cooler, but I think where Super Cs really shine is when you have a heavy hobby. Horse shows, auto racing, power boats, things like that. You don't need 10-20k lbs towing capacity for your toad, but you do to trailer a race car in a workshop trailer. Which is why some Super Cs are surprisingly short, around 30 feet long. So when you add your 15-20 foot long trailer you're not longer than a semi.

[@brustar5152]

I towed a 38ft Mobile Suites for years with a class 7 chassis 450 hp - 1400 ft lbs with a full ten spd Eaton Fuller manual. I can categorically state I would not want any class C with a power train combo lower than that, as with the combined wet weight of the Super C and a 20,000 lb stacker trailer as an example, you'd be passed by everything out there if it's using the typical 300Hp and less than 100olb Tq with one of those wimpy Allison autos the typical class 5/6 chassis comes with. Your auto tranny temps and rpm's would be in the red zone if climbing any long minimum gradient while attempting to keep up with the traffic.

[@1sheinz]

I just watched a review on a DYNAMAX SuperC. It had incredable basement storage compared to all these that you've reviewed. It was on Andrew Steels channel. And it has a DEAN LOUCKS paintjob on all Dynamax's just like the Prevo Liberty. You should look it up before making your choice. CHEERS Steve h.

[@harterbob]

Another great video. We own a Tiffin class A, but I really like the Renegade super Cs.

[@bobmariano3731]

Great videos guys 👍appreciate the feedback , especially with your experience. Safe travels to wherever they may take you . I think we’ll be looking to purchase a “Show Hauler “ Super C in the future . Love their construction & how solid built they are . 😊🎣⚾️👍

[@EndlessRVing]

If it’s in the budget the Showhauler is hard to beat

[@SoloHiker1]

I love the 36ft 4wd showhauler, love to have one...... Step one, find a million dollars....

[@beziergrin]

I just wanted to point out something about safety. I’m a truck driver and have seen accidents right up close. I love the form of the super c BUT take a long hard look at the hood and engine placement. If you are in a hardcore front end accident, that hood is going to fly right up towards the driver’s head. The engine is floating almost suspended on the chassis; it will fold up towards you depending on the rnergy levels. The A class the engine is below you. Nothing is coming up at you like a hood. If you collide with a four wheeler it will fold under you. So as long as you are belt buckled you have way better safety in what I call a cab over. This is also one of the reasons europe only allows cabovers.

[@joedwc]

This is wrong on so many levels

[@skinnerMTB]

I worked in auto insurance for many, many years. While the Super C's appear safer "in theory", the numbers simply don't back it up. Don't know why exactly, but that's just the reality - people aren't dying in front end Class A collisions. My personal theory is two things, 1.) You sit up much higher, giving you better visibility down the road. And 2.) The center of gravity is so low and you are up so high. Most collisions are with smaller vehicles. Front mounted generators take the hit, people bounce around inside and walk out a little dizzy. Unless you are smashing into another 40-50k lb object you're going to be safe in either :).....FYI, there is something like 9 MILLION RVs on the road and something like 26 fatalities annually, and that includes passengers in the other vehicle. All these bohemoths are very, very safe.

[@livingworkingoutsidebox]

Great job going over the pros and cons.

[@EndlessRVing]

Appreciate it!

[@johnromito4357]

I have had both and no question the super c drives better and is more stable in cross winds.

[@donhaas8547]

My wife and I are looking at regular class C units on the Ford E-450. Less expensive to purchase and lower maintenance costs.

[@cwroadking]

Hi great video, my question is what is the pros and cons of getting into a parking lot with a class A and a super C trying to get into a Walmart to get food.

[@thyhangman]

My team loyalty changes by the video! lol but if it was going to happen in real life it'll happen in a super C, probably a Show Hauler or a 1492 Coachworks.

[@rollingeezer]

I like the Class C but own a Class A and own a lot in a Class A only Motorcoach Resort. I recently tried to get our community to allow Super C’s but it was pretty clear early during the process that the owners in our resort had zero interest in changing the community formation documents. More often than not the issue can be resolved by the owners but there are a lot of folks that are Class A only come hell or high water! I’m not wedded to Class A but it appears I am in the minority. One reason I am looking at Class C’s is I’m tired of replacing the windshield. I’m on #3 in just 2 years!

[@EndlessRVing]

Some resorts allow Super C's. We wish more of them would! Thanks for sharing John.

[@lorrieleaver2447]

I believe it’s down to pure snobbery as the class A like to think there superior. I think it’s down to how well you keep your RV and Super C. Even age counts for these resorts no matter how stunning the vehicle in question.

[@dawntaylor8660]

I am wanting out of my 5th wheel (mainly because i don't have a truck to tow it with) and was looking at Class A, C and Super C C has WAY too little room, A has a ton of room (even saw a 2 bedroom) but I'm leaining on the Super C because it seems easier to drive plus most of them you could literally travel all over the country and rarely have to stay at a campground Would be easy to travel and stay in reststops if you had the right floorplan

[@scotttownley5076]

just watched and read lots of these comments we are going to upgrade our very old class A i am only going to look at the Super C The comments have me convinced the super is the only way to go thanks for the video

[@robertyounkinjr.1564]

If you buy a stacker trailer to haul your vehicle and you can also have a custom built to haul more personal stuff than any clase can carry .

C family here!! Love the towing and stability on road.

What about the advantage of the Drivers door access with a Super C

[@danawoods3183]

Going to have to stay with our Tiffin Class A. Thanks for the video.

[@rrrrkoop2776]

went from class A to super C mainly for "3 doors". we love driver and passenger doors and camper door. the one thing i hated about class A was stepping over the passenger to get in and out.

[@dcampbell97]

I have too much stuff to have a Super C. I am not pulling a trailer for my things because I want to pull a car. So I am sticking with class A. I'm very happy with mine!

[@FadeToBlackLLC]

Like someone else mentioned. Super C for hauling. If I'm not towing a loaded trailer around constantly I personally would not want a Super C. I think they are awesome for racers that don't need all the luxury just a place to stay. Class A with a enclosed trailer and I'm good. Now I just need the trailer. Very informative video 👍🏾

[@richardmondor1360]

Super C's are for racer that don't need all the luxury? Have you seen the inside of a Renegade, Showhauler or Tiffin Super C [not one of the medium duty Super C's like in this vid]. Don't get confused with a Toter Home that is a different animal all together, that is designed for towing/living and gives up some comforts in exchange.

[@germanjimenez5968]

I am undecided. I am exploring which one to get. Class A, B, C, Super C Mega, 5th Wheel or Travel Trailer. 🤭🤭🤔🤔🤔. I will continue to do my research. Great presentation. Very informative.

[@donwhitehead5705]

We are leaning toward Team Super C.

Class A Canyon star, floor plan 3927 is the one for my taste, and now even more with the FRED on it, but my heart is also looking to super C, but no garage is common on those. Greetings from Mexico

ok izzy do you think a class a tiffin is the best built class a and super c ??

[@larryrueckert5850]

How about mileage? Clearance for things like dog shows parking on grass at Fairgrounds...hunting on a farm access road?

Super C. I like the drive safety, service and tow capacity. The storage is not an issue. More than enough for one or two people. Good job on the video.

Love both equally, at this point I’m leaning towards Super C ( renegade ) . I’ve been looking for two years just unable to pul the trigger yet !

Watched this off and on over the past year and read the helpful comments from others. Currently I'm a 5th wheel guy but think my next purchase will be the Super C. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

Glad it helped!

[@paulclack5851]

Great video as a trucker myself a big con of the Class A diesel pusher especially today as I write this in March of 2023 $5.00- $6.00+ per gal for diesel and the fuel milage is only 4-5MPG vs a class super C you will see average fuel milage of about 10-14 MPG if that is not an issue for you great but It is for me.

[@EndlessRVing]

We have never seen anyone get that kind of mileage on a Super C. Thanks for sharing

[@paulclack5851]

@@EndlessRVing It really depends on a lot of factors weight, wind, speed ETC... The Key is There is always a sweet spot on all newer vehicles Diesels are no exception normally between 60-68 MPH if you just slow down to that speed and keep it in that range using the cruise control your average milage will increase along with your range. The problem is everyone wants to drive these insane speed limits 75+ you are pretty much forced to go faster this brings down the MPG quickly.

[@jmcg6160]

Super C all the way. Only one exit on the A's and it is limited while driving. The A's have more room and amenities but I'll take the safety advantage and advantage of service, windshield replacement etc.

Which one has a smoother ride ..

[@rickvonderchek6898]

I have a question maybe you can answer do you know if you can buy a Volkner Mobil coach in the USA . There made in Germany .

[@leemarinus]

With a Super C I could always tow a storage trailer, as an option. I like safety and driveability.

[@rrrrkoop2776]

and i have mentioned before: the ride is a gravel truck. prob getting liquid springs hope it helps. it is much easier to maneuver than class A. but not a deal breaker either way

[@DFYinformed]

Well, I’ve had neither. I’ve only had a tow behind trailer, but I would lean to the Super-C if I had to pick one. Reasons… don’t need a lot of storage; if I do need it, I’ll pull a trailer with my motorcycle in it anyway. Which leads me to towing capacity… love that in a Super-C. And then serviceability. Like the idea of being able to pull in any commercial diesel service center and have them work under the hood instead of in my coach.

[@bigeyejim]

What are opinions on accidents with a Super C vs well, anything...(I am a former School Bus Manager and driver instructor and accident investigator). What has kept me from getting a C - even though itt's a good size is I won't put a human (or my dogs) in the back of those things for accident resultts. Class A for that matter as well. I don't know if these Super C are any better with a beefier chassis or not. Opinions?

[@johnwhite2978]

Super C all the way. Had to replace a windshield and TWO TRANSMISSIONS in my class A. Great insurance helped but you still have deductible and wait time for repair parts, total about eight months. One summer lost.

[@Bluponi]

Great video... My favorite Super C is the Newmar Supreme Aire... Seems like it has the biggest bathroom of all Super C's

[@jim33758]

[@HighWayStar844]

Love our Mountain Aire but we are leaning towards a Renegade explorer.

[@Cyborg9799]

How much storage do you need?

[@eddiedoherty2349]

Class A as it meets my needs. I cannot think of a situation where I would need more than 7500 towing capacity. Basically you lose 4-6 feet of living space for equal length. Because of the windshield and openness, we try to face the best view. Like a regular C, the cockpit is for driving only.

[@user-tu3tw9xn3y]
