Billtex: we don't full-time but do go on the road for several months at a time, as well as taking shorter 1-6 week trips. I hear you on the gennys and solar. We may be able to ditch them someday, but we typically camp without electric hookup in NP/NF campgrounds, and the gennys come in handy for running the A/C when the weather turns hotter. I travel with my elderly mother who doesn't handle the heat very well.
I'm not keen on the idea of doing away with the travel trailer in favor of a larger TC. The TT gives us two permanent sleeping areas (a full-size sofa and a double bunk), and use of the dinette (which we do use a lot). I also prefer the idea of having a smaller-profile TC on the truck for tooling around towns, making runs to the grocery store, parking at trailheads where space can be at a premium, being able to drive some places with height clearance issues, etc...
Got it. You do have specific requirements. Track down Moosetags-he can give you some good advice.
