What is the difference between a Class B RV and Van Conversion?

The self-contained features of a Class B will distinguish it from a conversion van. Self-contained means that the RV will provide the necessities to live comfortably for several days without external electrical, water or sewer connections. Frequently, this includes toilet facilities, freshwater storage, wastewater holding tank, a refrigerator, cooking appliances, a furnace, and a 12-volt battery.

What is the difference between a Class B RV and a Class C RV?

A Class B is usually smaller and more fuel-efficient than a Class C. Because of its size and car-like characteristics, some consider a Class B easier to drive. A Class C offers more interior living space and more exterior storage.

Where can I park a Class B RV?

Typically under 20-feet in length, most Class B motorhomes can be parked anywhere you can park a car or van. Be aware that Class B motorhomes are taller than a van or SUV and will require more clearance height.
