It sounds like you've really thought through all the pros and cons of this purchase and I'll bet you will decide to go for it and purchase an RV, whether the one you are looking at or some other one.
With our RV, we have developed a set up and tear down routine where I handle the inside and my DH does the outside. The whole thing takes us about 30 min. I can and have done both inside and outside and it's not very difficult. Emptying the tanks is simple and you don't get any sewage on you or spilled if you are careful. We always wear rubber gloves but we've never had a spill problem in more than 20 years.
You know, you can always find a reason not to do something, but I think you won't regret jumping in and going for it. You've got a wealth of support here on the forums and you will find that RVers are the most helpful and friendly folks you will ever meet. We have had to ask for help more than once while out and have never been turned down. We've met some wonderful people along the way.
Best of Luck.
