DC Randy,
I want to put in my 2 cents here. All RVs are a trade-off. The TM has a handsome set of advantages and for me, it makes the TM the one I would most often want to take on the road. That's important. Fuel economy, freedom from need of a big dedicated tow vehicle, storage costs, insurance, and ease of towing are a big deal in overall satisfaction. One member said he had all types of RVs and the TM was his all time favorite. That being said, you must learn to cope with it's particuliarities. I like the TM trade set and would recommend the TM to nearly anyone. I think you will like yours as well as you have been around RVs enough to recognize a set of tradeoff parameters that's best for you.
I also had a dealer tell me that average is 7 RVs in a lifetime. Generally trading up to bigger and bigger and lastly trading back down because the one before was too big. Then I talked with motor home owners who were looking at something more practical. I was convinced and like my choice.
