From what I have seen, they tend to be either Super C's like GENECOP has or a Class 8 semi-truck with a full box or partial box that could also tow a trailer. Some of those can even be a toy-hauler RV.
You can use google images and type in "toterhome" and see all kinds of examples.
Gene or Jack Mayer can probably give you a lot more information. Perhaps even Bill Joyce and some others as well.

Not sure where to post this...
I'm looking at all kinds of floorplans (something I do to keep the dream alive) and on one of the sites (rvt.com) which has an extensive collection of listings, they have toterhomes listed. This is something that in my 2+ years of research I have never come across before.
Is anyone out there familiar with these? It looks like a Class A on a semi truck chassis instead of a bus. Any other information one could add?
Thanks

Since I posted this, been surfing more. Definitely not an option for me, but it may have potential for others.

What have you discovered that is making you rule out a Truck Conversion? We have had ours now for a couple of years and could not be happier, it suits our lifestyle perfectly....

A truck conversion to a class A (or class C) motorhome is different than a toterhome. By definition a toterhome is set up with a 5th wheel hitch at the back. With an extended living area behind the driving section of the truck. Typically they have a 6-20' "living section". While some people call a regular class 8 tractor set up to tow an RV a "toterhome" I would not consider it as such, since it does not have an extended "sleeper" section set up for true living.
