I know this isn't going to help a bit, but there is NOT the perfect RV! It's just like a ATV, Motorcycle, or wife. You're always going to want something else. No offense to the wives!
I've had a small 5er that I doubled with a ATV trailer (Won't do it again, although many do). I traded to a 36' 5er TH. It was great unless I wanted to get into the mountains (we have a lot in UTAH). It was great for the Dunes and dry camping. We went to a MH and pulled a ATV Trailer. Great until son found a way to break his arm camping and we didn't have a seperate vehicle to get him to the hospital. I put all my knowledge into our current TH, which is a tongue pull WW which measures out to 34' with triple axles. TOO BIG, but it fit our needs.
Now, I wish I had ........... you guessed it, something different depending on my mood or where we are going. However, I've come to the conclusion, that for MY FAMILIES needs, we are good with what we have for now.
My Point, you will second guess yourself to death. Analyze YOUR REALITY and what you have to tow with. (If you have a 1/2 ton and get any trailer, you'll want something bigger, then you buy a bigger truck, leads to bigger trailer, and so on and so on). Then make a decision that is best for your family.
Not much help, but I only know what's right for me, and I'm usually wrong.
