I don't see TM as a step up except in money. If you think you're going to save time or effort during setup i think you're kidding yourself. Maybe a Shasta type rv will work for 2 of you but your real cure might involve a new vehicle. JMO.
Absolutely correct that TMs cost more. But I believe you get a lot more:
More room (mine opens up to 31 feet)
A full bathroom
A fully functional kitchen
A real A/C
An awning
And the intangible - you feel so much more secure than in a tent enclosure for those popups that have that.
As for me, the setup and closing are quite quick and easy. I am about to go on a 10 day camping trip that will be my real full test of this new trailer, so I reserve the right to post other viewpoints later ...
