I don't know if the iSmove is considered a Class B Plus. It looks very nice. Pretty good for $100K.

A friend is considering getting Thor Compass Class B Plus. I myself might end up getting a B Plus but wife is sticking to a B.

That's a class A, and nothing real in that entire video. It was 100% animation.

It is only 6000 lbs - lighter than my RT 210V. Sure doesn't weight as much as a Class A!!! And 22 foot long!
That's the little one. Only available in Europe and Asia.

Just one more amazing European rig that you can't buy in the US.

Isn't that something? It is lighter and shorter than some Class B vans and yet so much room..... https://www.motorhomes.co.uk/manufac...-ismove-6-9-E/

I spent a few months per year in Europe drooling. I am still trying to stay positive that either Rapido/ Westfalia or Hymer will shake this market by quality and price.

A small Class A gains some width (maybe) and layout flexibility over a B. The drop-down front bed, for example, would not be possible in a B. But the B has safety, security, drivability, and durability advantages by retaining the full steel van body.

I am not drooling, at least not over the prospect of driving a lightweight, fiberglass-bodied vehicle- with little regulation and testing of crashworthiness- on the highway.

A little shy of 23 ft in length.

It's a Class A by USA classifications. It fits in a B box with the compensating width of the skirts ARV glossed over in the mention comparison and not the walls. It weighs 7,700 lbs or 9,900 lbs. not 6,000. It has a lot of innovative features which seemingly you can do in an upright wall custom box that you can't do in a structural unibody van with curved walls. Safety standard compliances are unknown.

The Class A GMC Motorhome model 230 manufactured in 1973 to 1978 is almost the same dimension profile. Imagine if they kept it up 42 more years what it could have been. My parents owned one.

So, you see these small Toyota busses all over Asia:

This picture was in China somewhere.

Every time I see one, it strikes me that it would make the perfect RV. There is so much cool stuff in the world that you can't buy in the US.
