5er to TT

Brought up this question a year or two ago...thought I would try again and see if any new input.

Our first RV was a travel trailer. Upgraded a few years later to our present 5th wheel. We are in the process of looking for a new RV and I am seriously thinking of going back to a travel trailer.

Wanted to see if anyone here has done that...5er back to a travel trailer?
Reasons why?
Any regrets?
Notice any big difference in towing/backing etc?

Thanks.

    Yes we went from a Mobile Suites 35 ft 5er to an Open Range Roamer 33ft TT. The TT layout is identical to the Open Range Roamer 5er and comes with 50 amp and power stabilizers. Personally I am more comfortable towing the TT and prefer the way it tracks closer in line to the truck and I find the TT easier to back into tight spots. The only thing we gave up was a washer/dryer otherwise very happy.
