Let’s start by making sure everyone is on the same page and to do that, we’ll need to break down the term itself. Firstly, a motorhome is the only type of RV that doesn’t require a tow vehicle. It comes with its own drivetrain, including engine, fuel source, and driving cockpit. But this broad definition became too broad as the group grew bigger and bigger, so the RV market decided to further break down motorhomes into subcategories, known as classes.Class A motorhomes, also known as Class A diesel pushers, are often the largest and most luxurious of all the motorhome classes. This is partially because they use a massive, bus-style chassis as their base, easily average between 30 and 35 feet long, but also reach up to over 45 feet. They also have a higher interior height, which gives some of our taller RVers some relief on a day-to-day basis. This bigger size not only gives you more interior space, but also more amenities and more luxurious amenities. This could include more appliances, more comfortable furniture and sleeping arrangements, and so on and so forth.
Driving Tips
The biggest hurdle is going to be learning how to drive a Class A motorhome. They’re big, after all, and won’t handle the way you’re commuter vehicle does. This is partially because of that bus-style chassis. The driving pedals will be a little different, you’ll have to work with air brakes instead of hydraulics, and the center of gravity will be a little higher. Essentially, you’ll need to give yourself more time and space to slow down when coming to a stop or turn. Make sure you put in plenty of practice hours before the big trip. Find a big, empty parking lot to relearn some of the basics, like braking, turning, parking, and reversing. Also, find a low-traffic time of day to hit the highways and practice high-speed driving and merging.Ready to check out some Class A diesel pusher RVs for yourself?
