And those of us that have TCs instead of a fifth wheel or travel trailer do so because we go places where we would not want to tow anything behind us. I have had a TC for 8 years. It doesn't have slide outs and it fits our lifestyle and needs perfectly. 4x4 diesel and we can go almost anywhere at any time of year in snow heat rain and go camping. Nothing like waking up with 20" of snow covering the rig, strapping on the snowshoes and heading out into the forest. Strap on some chains and put it in 4x4 and head on down the mountain when the time comes. No way I want to be going down the mountain in snow with a trailer even if the trailer has chains on it's wheels.
