For me it comes down to towing ability. I use a truck camper because I want to be able to to a pretty heavy trailer, so a TT or 5th wheel is out of the question.
However, "Likes to tow" is correct about the wife; I took mine to some RV dealers and looked at some 5th wheels just for fun one day... she went right for the 40-footers! I've been trying to get her to understand that the ones that are huge on the inside are also huge on the OUTSIDE!! Tow it? I don't even want to think about washing it!
I may be doomed.
My wife did just the opposite. First RV was a 8.5' TC, I loved it, she thought a couch would be nice so a 25' TT was purchased. We then retired and decided that the couch and slide weren't necessary for our travels out west so a 22' TT was easier to pull in the mountains. Then one day she looked out the window at the TT and said "you know we were more spontaneous when we had the TC", hence the TC and truck in my signature.
No argument from me, no more extra tires, bearings, brakes and hitches to think about. Enjoy your TC.
