We have looked at, considered and owned lots of campers of all kinds -- popups, a lightweight travel trailer, fifth wheels, and now a Trailmanor. First, we wanted to two an easy to handle camper that was economical to tow becuase of lower wind resistance. Second, we did not want to have to buy a big truck to pull a fifth wheel or heavy trailer. THird, we wanted to be able to store our camper in our driveway, which is narrow and crowded into a city lot. With the TM we got as much floor place as we had with our travel trailer -- just less to tow. THe weights of the two were similar, but our gas milage was 8 with the trailer and 14 with the Trailmanor. The floor plan is generally similar to our travel trailer, and the only thing I don't love is the low profile fridge. So, we bought a plug-in cooler that we use to supplement the fridge. It rides in the car plugged into the lighter and it lives in the camper plugged into electricity to hold beverages and snacks. In all, we feel that while we love the look of a huge fifth wheel, we do not want to tow it. We love the TM. Take a look at the larger ones. We bought the 3124KS. Queeneireads aka Judi
