A basic question first:
Do you want to keep using the bed of your truck while you are towing the trailer for something like bikes, firewood, gear, whatever?
This is only valid if the TV does double duty as a work truck with a canopy loaded with tools.
If the TV is primarily for the trailer then what space you "loose" in the bed, you gain in the basement of the 5er. The advantage is that if it primarily camping stuff, then it can leave it in the 5er between trips. With a 5er the bed is still usable to the top of the hitch.
