Type B Motorhomes Give You A Conversion Van Filled with Lots of Comfort
Type B Motorhomes are smaller than Type A Motorhomes, yet are just as loaded with all the comforts of home. These are 16 to 20 feet (and longer) in length. They are sometimes called conversion vans because they have been modified to be a brother to the Type A Motorhomes with some of the same features just in a smaller compact size. These vans can also be used as a regular everyday vehicle. You will find them amongst the most used of families that travel. Easier on gas milage makes this type of motorhome the most sought after.
With ease of parking and maneuverability, you can park them just about anywhere and have all the comforts of a larger type motorhome. You will be amazed at the features found in them including a toilet, water heater, furnace, shower, functional kitchen and a generator to keep everything working. The spacing inside these motorhomes is not as much as the Type A's, but you will love the better "get aroundabilityA" of it. The storage space is limited and does not work as well for traveling on long trips. You can, however, feel comfortable as the sleeping areas can accomodate up to four easliy. If you are like us, you can probably sleep more by how you lay out the arrangements. The price of these motorhomes are considerably lower than Type A's, being in the price range of $30,000 to well over $75,000. If you are looking for a great way to travel, get good gas mileage, easy to drive motorhome, this is your best way to go.
