I would say concrete is the better option generally but we had to go the pavers route due to an easement (even though there are no utilities on it). When we decided to put the pad in, we had an 8,000lbs TT but the guy that was doing the work suggested the thickest pavers possible with a good layer of crushed asphalt under them and I am glad we went with that.
Our motor home is not as heavy as yours but probably about 20,000lbs with a tank of gas and water in it. They haven't shifted settled or deformed in any way yet and we are on FL sandy soil as well but more time will tell I guess. They do look very nice as well.
Still, I think a good thick pour of concrete with mesh is the best long term pad. Cracks aren't the end of the world.
