So very true. And the number of choices makes decision that much harder.
I use to think my two main choices would be a small motorhome pulling a small car/SUV, or a pickup/SUV pulling a trailer.
Then during a trip out west to visit National Parks I saw a huge diesel pusher flat towing another RV in the form of a 4X4 Sportsbobile Class B. A little too much for my taste but I suddenly saw the benefits of splitting the RV into two units -- but on smaller scale.
If I get a Class B I want it to be able to tow a small camping trailer for when we travel with family, or for longer trips. The trailer can be a base camp while we drive around in Class B with many of the comforts of home. The problem is that newer vans can't tow much -- except Sprinters which I don't want.
Another option would be an Axis/Vegas towing a restored VW camper or something similar. Depending on trip, we could go out in either, or both together.
Lots of choices and combinations. A Class B van I can park at home that can serve as a second car seems almost perfect if only it could tow a 3500- to 4000-pound small trailer.
