Motorhome. Easier setup, especially in bad weather. You get to drive a car when you aren't travelling instead of a 1 Ton, but you have another powertrain to maintain..
5th Wheel, More room and decent sized kitchens with enough counter space and decent sized pantries. I've come to the conclusion that motor home owners must eat out a lot.
It also depends on whether you have other uses for a truck. I tow other trailers and a boat.

I don't tow with the furnace running and you can't run AC so we also have to wait for the rig to warm up or cool down after we get where we are going. We really like our 5th wheel but motorhomes do have their good points.
