Robust TC Wanted
Why is it that TC manufacturers build TC that will leak and you must do messy work to revitalize them periodically? Does any manufacturer used truck cargo box methods? Think about it...cargo boxes...

As others have said, buy a TC that is built like a boat hull (i.e. fiberglass). That's what holds up.
Fiberglass truck campers are basically a boat without the mast. The problem is, a nice new fiberglass truck camper will set you back over $40k. There just aren't a lot of folks willing to pay that amount of money, so most are built much more cheaply.
btw, I disagree that most cargo trailers are built better than RVs. I've seen enough of them rattle apart on washboarded roads to not be over enthusiastic about their build quality
