I have no idea what makes sense for your situation and preferences. I will just add some of my opinions for your consideration.
Most RVs, especially trailers, are cheap junk. They are poorly built and not built to last for long. At a minimum start by looking at the load ratings. Many have undersized axles, wheels and tires and can barely carry an empty RV.
Most new buyers buy RVs that are way bigger than they really need for the use intended. RV salesmen do not help in this regard. I recommend you look at the smallest RVs that fit your needs.
Lots of RVs are bought by families with relatively young children. The RVs sit unused for all but a few weeks a year. So the cost of use is high. There is another even bigger issue. By early teenage years, family RV trips are about the last thing the kids want. Many RVs are sold at that point.
