Gee whiz, I have missed all this. I camped 4 nights at the Colorado Rally, and stayed 4 nights in a motel. Me happy, wife happy--well not about the camping. I will say this, driving 1500 miles in a top heavy TC is no fun. Now I'm wondering about getting a pop-up TC, as my wife said TCing is not for her. Like a lot of you, there is a lot to see in the USA, but I'd like to have my own bed and a potty for the midnight relief. Not ready to go to just a topper like the OP, but I really admire his reasoning.
I'm seriously thinking 4 wheel campers or a Alaskan mini.
Thought about a Four Wheel Shell model. But because I have no place to store a camper off the truck and intend to leave it on the truck full time.

Good luck with yours.
Recommending something other than an RV or Truck Camper can rile folks I've found.
What the hay this is RV.NET after all.
