Happy medium between comfort and good gas mileage to haul?

Hi everyone! I just joined tonight, because we need your experience and wisdom! What would be your recommendation for the most practical size of TT for a couple in their early 60s who wants to trave...

For the two of you, get a 18 footer. Any smaller and you won't get the ammenities that you would want.
You'll need a good eight cylinder vehicle and then you will be lucky if you get more then 11 MPG
If you are buying based strictly on gas mileage, you might want to forget about it. You are not going to get good mileage
