It is never to early to get out camping. Go for it! We are going to retire in about 5 years, but for many years have gotten out for 20 to 30 nights a year. It does seen as the years have passed we are out camping more, but slowing down on the length of the trails we hike.

We had several different TT and pop-ups. Right now, we very much think the TM is perfect for us. If offers a TT environment when setup, storage in the garage, simple to set up and take down and the cost to pull it is very low compared to a TT or MH. We end up getting between 17 to 20 mpg with the TM, unlike the TT's that we need a special TV and got 8.5 to 9.5 MPH.

We never had a motor home, but my friends that have them, seem reluctant to take them for any distance because of the 4.5 to 6.0 mpg and don't seem to get out as much once they got a MH and complain about having to bring a car under tow, or using the MH to run around site seeing once they arrive at a camp ground ?
