And that is exactly what a close friend of mine did.  She went out looking
for a Class B or small Class C.  She is very familiar with my '90 Westy but
didn't want to take on the 'burden of ownership' we accept with out rigs but
didn't want a monster.  The new Class Bs she found were up around $85k but
she could get a well equipped Class C for about $65k!  Since she travels
with animals the additional room and convenience of the Class C, and the
price, won out.
BTW, her rig runs away from me especially on hills and mountain passes.  But
I win at the gas pump.
