Looking forward to your comments. When all said and done, if you were a first time buyer, which rv would you purchase?
Hope you found my previous comments / comparison useful - but as you pointed out I didn't draw any conclusions.
Personally, I would buy a truck camper - but that is because I want 4x4 and don't want to dedicate a vehicle to being only an RV. I find having a truck too useful.
But I am aware that many don't want to drive offroad, and don't need a truck or aren't worried about having an RV that can only be an RV.
Also, if someone is not technical / mechanical, then the extra complexity involved in choosing a truck camper - matching it to the truck, possibly modifying the truck, and having to deal with loading and unloading - could be a very big turn-off. With a regular class C you can check it has all the stuff you want, check it has the space you need, try lying in the bed, etc. AND you can go for a test drive and there is a fair chance it will drive pretty much the same when you get it home.
