I used to think I wanted a trailer until I witnessed many couples arguing while hooking and unhooking trailers at camp sites. I have seen some seriously stressed out people over the years dealing with trailers. ;)
Joking aside, I always recommend a new buyer ask themselves what they really need versus what they think they want. No need to spend big bucks on something you want but don't need or may not use that much. Spend more time considering exactly how you will use your RV and what you expect of it. This will likely determine the rest of your questions and decisions like price and type. That may mean renting both and then making a comparison list. Good luck with your hunt for the perfect fit!
