So, given I can't afford the new TM and we are looking used and many of the used ones have ovens with countertop microwaves, I am wondering as a weight saving technique how hard it would be to remove the oven and put in a microwave instead and would I have to get a special microwave?

We have the conventional propane oven in our TM, and we use it quite a bit, especially in the winter when the extra heat is certainly welcome. What you need to remember is that if you opt for the microwave only, you'll not be able to use it when dry camping (ie no hookups); whereas you'd be able to use the conventional oven as long as you had propane. (You might, however, be able to power the factory installed microwave with a generator when dry camping). We bought a small, inexpensive microwave that we keep on the counter when we need it for something quick. For us, this is a more practical way to go.
