I have always wanted a TC from way back in my Arizona days in the 60s/70s.
Perfect for my Radio Ops setups and with 4WD can get back into the most secluded place.
The problem that always turned me away was storage of supplies and other items that I seem to must have based on what I carry with me today in my OFF-ROAD POPUP setup.
I would not know what do if I didn't have a front deck and my pickup truck covered bed for carrying all of this stuff with me on every trip.
The answer I guess is towing a utility trailer behind the TC.

The other turn-off for me would be not having my truck to use for scouting out everywhere around where we camp. I see alot of talk of pulling the TC off the the truck and sitting on the ground but that would worry me sick I suppose not knowing if my TC Camper would still be at the camp site when I return or not...
The answer for this I suppose is to mount he TC camper on a flat trailer like this - then you can use your truck for other things..

Before long you will probably end up towing something behind that like a boat or a small utility trailer.
Might as well get one of those AUSSIE OFF-ROAD TRAILERS thats Bob Ryan shows us all the time from down under or at least one of the Starcraft 36RT series units and start building up my own off-road unit...

Too many catch 22's for me I guess...
