If you're in the market for a new RV but aren't sure you want or need all the room that comes with a Class A, then a Class B RV may be the right fit for you. Class B's, often referred to as "camper vans" are a great option for people that are looking for the comfort of an RV with a driving experience that is similar to a regular vehicle. But don't let the term "camper van" fool you. Class B RVs come packed with features amenities that you'll love.
Class B advantages
Camper Vans, or Class B RVs, have been growing in popularity in recent years for many reasons. First of all, some new RVers find Class B's to be less intimidating to drive because they are built on a van chassis. It's a great way to get started RVing in a comfortable way. Another reason why RVers are loving Class B RVs is that they support a minimalistic lifestyle. You have space to have the things that you need without feeling there is a ton of space to fill up with things that you don't necessarily care if you have with you or not. This helps to remove stress and anxiety for some people. You have just enough space to enjoy your time inside your RV while still having the freedom to travel where you want and enjoy life outdoors as well. Another reason why people love Class B RVs is that they are easier to park and store. In many locations, you're not able to store an RV in your driveway. This means that you need to find RV storage options. However, when it comes to Class B RVs, they look like vans which means you may be able to get away with keeping it in your driveway, or garage, without any problems. And those are just a few of the reasons why people enjoy using Class B RVs for camping and even full-time RVing. If you're interested in exploring the option for yourself, here are two Class B's that are worth your time and attention:Thor Compass
The 2021 Thor Compass is a Class B Plus RUV (Recreational Utility Vehicle) that combines the best of both worlds. You get many of the Class A benefits with a little more space than a traditional Class B. And it provides a great driving experience.
There are two different floorplans to choose from giving you the ability to choose the space that works the best for your family. One of the floorplans sleeps 4 with a queen bed and sofa bed. The bedroom is in the back. There is a curtain that can be closed around the bedroom to provide a little bit of privacy from the rest of the living space. This floorplan is a great option for small families looking to enjoy time on the road.
The second floorplan sleeps two through the use of a murphy bed. This allows there to be more space for additional counter space in the kitchen and it even includes a retractable television that you can enjoy from the couch during the day or the bed at night. This layout also provides for a little more space in the bathroom as well.
Each floorplan allows you to enjoy cooking and eating meals in your Class B. Features that come standard in both floorplans include:
- Single door refrigerator
- Two burner gas cooktop
- Covers for the kitchen along with task lights to make your work easier
- Microwave oven
- Single bowl sink with cover to provide additional counter space when not in use
- Kitchen waste basket
Winnebago Era
Another Class B Rv that you don't want to miss is the Winnebago Era. This is another RV that provides you with the combination of comfortable travel with the easy maneuverability of a van chassis.
There are three different floorplans that you can choose from. The 70A sleeps 3 and the 70B and 70x sleep two. Here are the features that the three floorplans share in common:
The Winnebago Era has a wet bath to give you access to everything that you need for traveling life on the road. While camper vans don't have a lot of room, the Winnebago takes full advantage of every little space. The wet bath gives you access to a toilet, shower, and sink all in one compact location. This allows you to have what you need in the bathroom without sacrificing valuable space that you need for your living and sleeping areas.
When it comes to the main living space, some of the common features that the Winnebago Era layouts provide include:
- 24" HDTV
- MCD blackout roller shades
- Lights on a dimmer switch
- Removable pedestal table
- Touch screen systems monitor panel
- Mirror
- USB charging points
