If you guys are putting motorhomes up in the thread please put the price as well!
In about an hour Stacy and I are going to go through and try to make heads or tails of all of this.. It's a lot of information for people that don't know anything about motorhomes.
What in the thread so far makes the most sense for us / bang for the buck?

Both of the super C's listed in this thread would be a great fit for your desires! The super C with the Dmax/allison will run amazing, and there is so much stuff out there for the dmax/allison that if you want more you can reliably upgrade. A tuned Dmax/allison in a 18Klb rv would run amazing, even when you hook 10K behind it. Those should both be way under your budget too, and super c's tend to hold their resale pretty well. AND...you can take a super C to most gm dealers across the country and they will work on them because they are just a C5500 truck with a camper on it.
And I concur with the above about bunks, we hated our bunks. Sucks for extracurricular activities when your kids are 3' away from you. We hang out outside at night, not in the camper. If I wanted to hang out in the camper, Ill stay at home! My kids all pretty much sleep in the bunk over the cab at the other end of the moho, and with a curtain, you can close that and not have to make up beds every morning like you will with a Class A that doesn't have bunks. It does get old making the dinette back to a dinette, and the couch back to the couch...especially if your kids are late sleepers, but not the end of the world again.
Also...the Super C's have a GREAT turning radius. I know it was mentioned that a motorhome isn't a great launch vehicle, but I launch our boat ALLLL the time with the super C. On the beach, on the ramp, etc. It drives like a big truck, so my wife even likes to drive it. Having your own door to get out of is super nice too. Not a deal breaker, but a benefit for sure.
