To me it's a hassle waiting and waiting at the gas pump while $60, $70, $80 or more in fuel goes into the tank. I prefer the brief time it takes to pump $30 of gas into my little TV's gas tank. BTW it's also a hassle to work all the extra time to earn this additional money for fuel, not to mention the hassle of earning the money to pay for, insure, maintain, repair, etc. a bigger dedicated TV. Compared to that option, I'll gladly apend the 30 second extra set-up time of my little Aliner, as it would take more than 30 seconds more just to fill a huge TV's gas tank at each fill-up. :W

You don't get in to RVing because it's cheap or to get good gas mpg.
If you want cheap and to get good gas mpg Motel 6 is your best bet.
While there is nothing wrong with an Aliner or Trailmanor, using these methods to camp there are more compromises, thus is why you see a very small number of these type of trailers in campgrounds.
