Have you ever owned an RV of any type before? DW & I had RVd for years and FTd for a few years. We got out of RVing for several years. When we decided to get back into RVing there were many changes. We started with a small TT. Within a year of using it we knew what we didn't want. It wasn't the TT it was just differences in how RVs are built, what is offered etc. JMHO. If you have never RVd before I would rent an RV for several trips. You will quickly figure out what you need and don't need. You will get a chance to talk with other RVers on those trips. For brands check out RV brand forums. Listen to their likes and dislikes. You will quickly learn a lot just reading on this forum. Just driving any MH for 20 minutes new or used will not always give a good picture of what it will or won't do.
BTW. When I mention change that means everything. Our parks have changed. In the 60s & 70s driving into a park and finding a place to stay without reservations was easy. I drove up to Yellowstone on a day trip last Thursday (We live close) the traffic was terrible. Finding a parking place to watch old faithful was almost impossible. Although you may enjoy places like Yellowstone maybe you will change your mind about sizing an RV for those places. Lots of things change once on the road.
