I have always wanted a TC SETUP for my style of off-road camping but could never justify the loss of storage space for all of the items we like to have with us...
It is hard to ignore my OFF-ROAD POPUP trailer with its large front open deck and my empty truck bed.

I can carry some serious supplies with this setup and have a vehicle to go do some trips to the local towns to get more needed supplies or just site seeing...
I know I can drag along a utility trailer behind the TC but then what does one do if they need to go pickup things from the local areas... Kinda of hard to break up camp just to go to the local town for a few hours...

Leaving the truck camper abandoned at the camp site is a way to do it I guess but I would be worried sick leaving my everythings unattended at the camp site. I see some TCs do this at a few of the places we camped at... It only takes a few minutes to raise up the TC and drive out from under it.

Each to there own....I would not disagree with you even though I have tried the pop-up trailer route and would never consider trading my comfortable, roomy TC to go back to it :B
On edit... And when I am travelling somewhere I might need a separate vehicle often, I just tow my GMC terrain. Very easy and lots of room for extra storage.
