Been researching TT vs class C. For the sake of argument lets assume if I buy a trailer I will install an EQUALIZER 4 point hitch. Lets further assume that as I drive across America I will want to unhitch the truck every 3rd overnight stop at a campground and of course re-hitch for the next day's travel. Also need to secure the hitch in my truck bed, trailer or tie to a tree so it doesn't walk off while I'm not around.

I'm 75. Am I soon going to get tired of wrestling the hitch on and off and wish I would have spent a little more and got a class C? I know there are other pros and cons to each option, but I have no knowledge of the effort required for the hitch process. We'll assume an electric tongue jack.

I own both at the moment..A 30 ft travel trailer and a 21ft Class C.I have owned all the different RV's and the trailer is the hardest to set-up and take down with the fifth wheel being easier and the motorhomes the very easiest.

Sometimes messing with the hitch and bars can be a real hassle compared to the other RV types.With my C I find a level spot and I am done..Nothing else to do except enjoy.With the travel trailer you have corner jacks to mess with and hooking up and un-hooking and storing the bars and hitch.

At 75 years old,yes it will get old,depending how you RV..A class C with auto levelers would be the cats meow..Nothing to do but pull into a spot and your done with never leaving the coach.

Each year we age it seems the mountains get steeper and everything gets a little heavier..(laughing)
