From 5er to class A, why?
How many of you moved from a 5er to a class A and why? I have ruled out a class C and TT so a DP 40 or a higher grade 5er appeals to me but as someone who has not rv'd before, I'm struggling to know ...

I have done the western trip with both; hands down without question the MH is more convenient, and comfortable, and easier to drive, and, and, and...
I honestly cannot think of one thing the TT did better or made the trip more enjoyable than the MH. And for the record, we were pulling the TT with an F250 Crew Cab diesel Lariet with the Ultimate package, so we weren't slumming it with the tow truck either.
The TT is now gone.
I agree that it won't do it "better" but equal is a different matter.
There is one exception, the price to get in the game. For equivalent units, MH's are typically 30-100% higher priced.
When it comes to use while traveling I wouldn't say it was even close to equal, but that's just my opinion after owning and using both.
As far as the price of admission, to do it properly a new upper end truck and 5th wheel would be in the $130-$160k range. That buys a nice higher end new gasser or nice used diesel.
