We had an old Class A and on our second fiver.
Lots of pros and cons.
Setting up and tearing down. Class A wins by a hair. Both are simple but the fiver you do have to get out of the truck and get into the fiver. After that they are the same (for the ones with leveling jacks).
We like not having a second vehicle to pay for maintenance. But, it means we drive the truck as our daily driver. Our fiver is small enough we just kept our 3/4T truck and it does really well.
If you are going to have a larger fiver and need a 1T dually or larger, then this can be a big issue. I would not want to drive an MDT as my daily driver. Toy haulers have relatively high GVWR's due to the weights they can carry in the garage. You'd have to evaluate what you are going to pack when choosing a truck.
Interesting too as the park we are in now has quite a few larger Class A's. Have seen several being serviced so they could get back on the road. Have no idea what that costs. When my truck needs service I drive it to a dealer/shop.
