Towing a pop-up vs. a self-contained
I've owned 3 pop-up campers over the last 18 years. I'd like to upgrade to a 27' self-contained camper but I'd like more information about the differences in towing them. Any and all info is welcome. ...

ctilsie has a good point. We took a hard look at A-liners with dormer options. The set up took my DW less than 2 minutes. We also looked at Trail Manors.
Unfortunately by then we had settled on three criteria 1. A bed you could exit without crawling over your spouse. 2. A bath you could maneuver in. 3. Storage pantry and linen space.
Another factor was, by the time we added all the extras. The A-liner and Trail Manor would cost a much as the 25 ft. TT we were looking at.
As it turned out, our style of camping is camp-and-go. That is we may spend a week or so camping for a couple of days, exploring points on the way, before we reach out destination.
In the end convenience won out for our type of travels but I would give the A-liners a serious look.
