I really don't care. Wish I had a better answer. I don't know what I don't know. Just looking for the best bang for the buck.

It is about cost and storage, ignore the truck. This is going into a tight space in my backyard and I just can't have a 20+ foot trailer taking up that much space and I am not paying rental fee somewhere to store it offsite. Also, doubt you will find anything newer (less than 2 years) in mint condition for $8000 (or less). If I can get the TT for say $6 or $7k in cash, I almost don't care about the lack of space inside for that price. It will only be used for short weekend camp trips with no more than a couple nights at most. Worst case after a couple years, I grow out of it or wind up never using it, and I will get most of my money back and then I can make a better decision on what I really want based on my personal experiences at that time.
This to me is the cheap, easy, very low risk way of trying out RV lifestyle.
Seems to me that you're putting an awful lot of time and energy choosing between choices when you say you don't care? If it's just a matter of trying out the RV lifestyle cheap and easy and getting your money back out in a couple years - and the rest doesn't matter - then buy the least expensive trailer in the best shape.
If that isn't the solution you want, then you need to be honest with yourself and figure out what is standing in the way? Is it worry that wife won't like the tent ends of the hybrid? Or is it that the buddies won't like the bunk beds? Maybe you can't have them all be happy with the limitations you've self-imposed (size).
