Hi Mike, good to see your post, haven't seen you for awhile, I'm retiring at the end of 2018 myself and we decided we needed something a little more comfortable to lounge in and also keep our maneuvability, we decided on the Host Mammoth also. We were influenced by some of the members of this forum and after looking at different styles of RV's and I have owned 3 Class A's, we thought the TC still suited us the best. It's still pretty new to us though we are living in it full time until our new home is finished built, just haven't traveled much in it. We will flat tow our Jeep when we go certain places but otherwise just the TC suits us fine. We spent 3 months in Alaska last year in our last camper and didn't have any space issues. Good luck in your decision, you can't go wrong whatever RV you do choose, they all have their pros and cons. Hope to see you on the road sometime! I also picked up a little class B I use for some of my short and spontaneous trips around the SW.
