We went from our TC and a bumper-pull horse trailer, to a 3-horse, gooseneck with a 12' short-wall and a 6' dinette slide-out. We kept the Lance for the couple of non-horse related camping trips we take.
Our LQ camper seems HUGE to us, with just my wife and our two dogs. Definitely an upgrade over the Lance. The Lance just seems so cramped after having a slide-out camper of any kind... they really add to the floor space.
Now we just laugh when we camp in the Lance... We still love it, but it is tight. I can't imagine 4, 5 or 6 people in a TC.
I like the idea of towing a small camper for the kids. I'll bet they would love that setup a lot more than just the TC.
