Self-propelled Class A RVs have complete functions and luxurious facilities. They are generally built on the chassis of large buses and look similar to luxury buses.
2. Class B MotorHome
Class B MotorHome is small and exquisite, with complete functions and easy to drive. It is usually built on the chassis of a medium-sized van (such as Iveco). It is just raised on the top to facilitate people to walk.
3. Class C MotorHome
Class C MotorHome is moderate in size, complete in functions, easy to drive, and powerful. It is usually built on the chassis of a medium-sized truck. Part of the box protruding above the cab is its standard logo.
4. Travel Trailer
As a classic RV, the standard travel trailer has complete functions and living facilities. It can be selected in large, medium and small sizes. However, it needs another pickup truck to tow it, and the lightweight one can be towed by an SUV. The weight of the RV is different, and the power required for the trailer will also be different.
5. Trailer-type fifth wheel RV (Fifth Wheel Trailer)
The uniquely designed fifth wheel RV has complete functions, complete living facilities, comfortable living, wide vision, and easy towing. It is deeply loved by many full-time RVers. However, it must be towed by a pickup truck with a special hook, and the weight of the RV is different, and the power required by the pickup truck will also be different.
6. Trailer-type foldable RV (Folding Camper / Tent Camper / Popup Camper)
Foldable RVs are cheap, easy to tow, and can provide the most basic living facilities. Due to their light weight, almost ordinary family cars can tow them. Suitable for young people to camp in summer.
7. Trailer-type pickup truck camelback RV (Truck Camper)
The pickup truck camelback RV is a uniquely designed RV mounted on a pickup truck. It will not have any impact on the off-road function of the pickup truck, but can provide all the most basic living facilities. It will not affect the pickup truck to tow other equipment (such as towing a boat or another RV).
