Help me decide??
I have narrowed down my search to 2 used trailers that are fairly local with a great price. I decided I will pay cash. One is a Hybrid 19' and the other a 17' traditional travel trailer. I am goi...

I have camped in all types of rigs, two different pop ups, one hybrid, and now a hard side 23.5 feet. My wife prefers the hard side (I was happy with the hybrid).
I think hybrid get a bad name, especially for set up and tear down, even in the rain. They are nothing like a pop-up. To open my hybrid ends, I undid two latches per end, lowered them down, done. Closing up, I would sweep them off and reverse the order, making sure to not close the tent material in the opening. If it was raining, easy open at home.
That being said, our hybrid had two queen mattresses, but my wife and I shared one of them. While some don't care to open and close the ends of a hybrid, I don't like putting down the table for a bed. I like to get up in the morning and have a cup of coffee and a bowl of cereal, and that is difficult if someone is sleeping on the table.
