Class C RVs and Motorhomes in Bothell

Class C RVs are a popular and excellent option for RV travelers of every kind in Bothell and King County. Dating back to the 1970s, Class C recreational vehicles (RVs) are the most common type of RV on the road today. Roughly the size of a moving truck, these RVs are as luxurious as Class A motorhomes, but on a smaller scale. Additionally, Class C RVs are ideal for families with many children because they include ample sleeping areas and storage spaces.

Known as a mini-motorhome, the Class C RV  is incredibly popular throughout the United States. The Class C can be custom-fit for a small number of travelers, such as two retirees, up to a large number of travelers,  such as a family with several children. Class C RVs include the greatest range of options for slide-outs and features among all motorhome classes.

 

Benefits of a Class C Motorhome in Bothell

Class C RVs and motorhomes have several advantages when it comes to traveling.

  • Maneuverability: If you have experience driving a large van or truck similar to a moving truck, you can easily maneuver and handle this type of motorhome.
  • Accessibility: The driver’s cab is open and connected to the living area, allowing passengers to communicate easily with the driver.
  • Safety: The construction of the driving cab is one of the safest designs among RVs.
  • Towing: You can carry a vehicle or small trailer behind the Class C motorhome.
  • Comfortable:. A curtain is available to divide the cockpit from the living compartment to ensure comfortable heat and air conditioning levels.
  • Space: You can quickly add space to your living compartment with the available slide-outs. There is also additional sleeping space with the cab-over bunk, and Class C Rvs can sleep up to eight adults.

 

Downsides of a Class C Motorhome to Consider

Potential buyers should consider not only the benefits of Class C RVs, but also possible drawbacks to owning a Class C motorhome. While not necessarily a problem for every buyer, these potential issues include the following.

  • Parking Problems: If you attempt to maneuver this type of motorhome in a parking lot with limited space you may have difficult, due to the size of the motorhome.
  • Alternate Transportation: You may need alternative transportation to drive through and tour some cities, as many of these motorhome models are too large for smaller streets.
  • Access to the Garage: If you do not have access to a garage large enough to hold the motorhome, it could sustain damage from weather.
  • Not a Main Home: The Class C is too small to make it your main home unless you choose a large model.
  • Malfunctioning Slide-Outs: Slide-outs and other parts may malfunction and require repairs.

 

Cost of Class C Motorhomes in Bothell

When deciding if a Class C motorhome is an ideal choice for you, your family, and your budget, there are a couple of things to consider. Initially, you should plan for the cost of the RV. A new-model Class C RV costs approximately $30,000 to $100,000 in the Bothell area.

However, you can purchase a used Class C motorhome for much less. Used class C RVs range from as low as $8,000 up to $30,000. The prices vary depending on the number of features and slide-outs the motorhome has.

Another consideration is the fuel economy of your vehicle. Class C RVs regularly get 8 to 12 miles per gallon, while a Class A motorhome is significantly higher. A Class A RV in Bothell can cost as much as 50 cents to $1 per mile.
