Class B motorhomes (like the one in Figure 2-3) are the opposite of the big Class As in size — they’re the smallest self-contained coaches on the road. Some people still use the ’70s term van conversions to refer to these, because Class Bs are basically heavily modified delivery or passenger vans.

Manufacturers typically buy Ford Transit (gas or diesel), Chevy Express (gas), RAM ProMaster (gas), or Mercedes Sprinter (diesel) vehicles to build them, and they range in size from about 17 to 28 feet in length. Because of their limited size, Class Bs are best suited for a single person or a couple. Some claim to have sleeping space for up to four people, but that’s really only practical if the other two passengers are young children.
