Intro To RVs: Motorhomes

What is a Motorhome?

A motorhome is a motorized RV designed for comfort as you hit the road with your friends and family. It is also sometimes called a ‘drivable RV’ and you will find varieties powered by gas or diesel engines.

The Three Classes of Motorhomes

There are three different classes of motorhomes: Class B, Class C, and Class A.
