Driveable vs towable for x country trip
We are trying to weigh the pros and cons of the different types of rv for a 2 or 3 month cross country tour. We currently have a class a but have also owned a c and stayed in a 5th wheel on occasion....

The class A people spend as much time messing with the toad hitch as we do the 5er. The DW is not going to unbelt herself & go make a sandwich at 60mph & nobody is going to the bathroom at that speed so that one does not wash.
I can unhook the toad and drive it away in under 3 minutes. I can hook up the toad in under 5 - it takes an extra minute to line it up perfectly and another minute to set the jeep for towing. And I do it in that time alone. With two, both instances are under two minutes.
I don't make a sandwich, but I have made coffee at 60 mph. Typically, we will eat snack food instead of sandwiches - sandwiches require two hands - difficult when driving.
I have also gone to the bathroom while moving. It isn't a big deal, and I won't do it unless on straight, flat, road. DH warns me at sudden braking or curves. Of course, I've spent a lot of time on boats. I still have sea legs so the motion doesn't bother me.
