Transition from TT to Class C

I am seriously contemplating transitioning from a 30' 2013 Koala TT. I am having difficulty wrapping my arms around giving up the space in the TT but may still for the convenience of an MH....if I can find a floor plan I can get comfortable with. My question for those who have done this(if you haven't please refrain)is what additional costs do you incur on a yearly basis that we don't have with a TT? I know insurance will be more and I know costs will be more if something breaks. I guess what I am asking is how much different from maintaining a car or truck is an MH? We are talking gas and more than likely V10.

If you don't get rid of TV, insurance is about it IMO.
There are very few (bad) small things that do pop up for us. Like my local Ford dealer can't fit class C into his garage because of height. Have to use another 12 miles away.

I switched from a TT to a class C, but it was 10 years ago. You can't really compare a MH to a TT, its really a TT plus a TV. Depending on where you live, The MH may only be used in the summer whereas a TV, truck, may be used all year long.

To me the convenience of a MH more than makes up for the possible difference in ownership costs of a TT and truck.
