I would choose the TT. When I was 15, 5 siblings age 4-15, we did a three week trip from Detroit to Montana and back, with side trips to National Parks enroute. Most nights we could just stop (not even unhook), fix dinner in the campground, pile into the trailer to sleep. A popup camper would make that a whole lot more work.
After we wore out that TT (with some help from an uncle who borrowed it to take it to Alaska and Mexico before bringing it back to Michigan) it was replaced by a popup camper, used by my family with Mom, Dad, and the three younger sisters for a week at a time in the state parks. That's what a popup is for.
