I'm in the market for a used Class C. After researching many: I'm hoping I can make a list, and someone can narrow some make and models for me. I realize I may not find them all, but hopefully most of them. Thanks All.

My Class C would have been perfect for you but it already sold.
The sleep over cab is well worth it. My Fleetwood Tioga had a nice sturdy ladder for getting up there to the queen bunk. When the ladder wasn't in use, there was a special space for it above the cabinetry in the salon where it popped into place and out of the way for safe traveling storage.
My friend that often traveled with me complained of the seam between the two cushions in the cab over bunk so we added a memory foam topper and that was heaven on earth for comfort. I never slid the bunk away, just left it out in the full queen size all the time. This made the dash AC super efficient at keeping the cab cool while driving without having to run the generator.
Many RV's come with carpet, but I removed mine and replaced with vinyl.
Dark glass is optional. There is static cling tint that is super easy to apply yourself as it just uses a teeny bit of water to apply and it is repositionable.
If you are paying cash, don't worry too much about the year. Just look for one with a cozy layout that appeals to you. ;D
Class C's do sell quicker than most any other type RV, so go look at plenty on Craigslist and at dealers. The more you look the more you gain in knowledge.
Good luck and let me know what you find.
