Many variables. For people like me that keep a truck no matter what. the TT is the best option. We don't count the TV cost in the deal because we already have one.
However. IF you are going to need to buy a TV AND a TT, or 5er. Then the cost gets much closer. After all a new truck that will tow well, can / will cost North of $60,000. Then a TT can also cost North of $30,000. Most don't but many can.
So you can be looking at right at $100,000 just to get started camping with a TV, and TT, or 5er.
You can get a pretty nice MH for less than $100,000, Maybe not a diesel pusher, but still a nice MH
