I travel with friends that have a TT, while I have a class A. My setup is faster than his (keep in mind I don't have a toad and he usually doesn't unhook his truck). Yes, hookups are the same. But I pull in and level and extend slides from the driver's seat before I even turn off the engine, while he has to get out, level the trailer right/left, THEN level the trailer front/rear (sometimes requires unhooking from TV, which also requires wheel chocks and/or x-chocks). I suppose that auto-leveling (cost?) would help with that, but you are still going to need to get out of your tow vehicle and walk back to do so. And since you will be setting up often, that extra time will get old in a hurry, IMO.
One other consideration; I can do all of it without going out into bad weather; can't say the same with a TT or 5er.
And don't completely discount the access while moving that a MH gives; quite often, my wife can go back and get me/her a snack/drink while traveling; she can also go back and use the restroom, take a nap, work a puzzle, etc.
