If towing is a concern , consider that either way, you will likely be towing. Either a truck pulling a tt, or the Class C pulling a small car for touring and side trips.
If you believe you will not be doing side trips that much but will move every two days or so, and don't mind walking halfway across a parking lot to buy groceries etc, a MH by itself can work.
If you want to park the house and take side trips to tour the local sights, then a toad becomes more important, and you are again towing.
If you go MH, you will have maintenance on it, plus any tow vehicle (which will likely be one of your daily drivers) with a TT you have the truck maintenance , which as you said could also become a daily use vehicle.
Making a decision on whats right in your case is one as personal as you, there are so many options because there are so many ways to use the rigs.
Uhaul and Enterprise both rent pickups , so you could rent one for 2 or 3 days as well as renting a trailer to try it. If it would help with your decision.
