Yes, it depends on your plans and how you camp. It also depends on your very personal preferences, and can change with circumstance. Glad you are happy with your Windsport, it obviously fits you well. We have met a lot of folks who have changed their minds about the perfect coach, some after only a short while. And we have met folks who full-time in their Vegas. Our preferences have changed over time. Vive la difference!

Exactly. So much depends on personal needs, preferences, and what we feel comfortable with.
Beyond traveling with other people or dogs, I personally think our physical size must also matter to some degree. A 110-pound female probably needs less space to move around than a 280-pound guy.
Our tolerance for tight places is also very different. I've seen people who freaked out visiting inside a submarine, and others who don't like flying because they don't like the feeling of being confined.
I don't need much space, and prefer as little as actually required. When traveling, too much space for me is a burden, not an asset. Plus, if I wanted to feel like I was in a residence, I'd stay home. Not saying we want to tent camp again, but certainly don't need or want a huge motorhome unless we were going to be full timers.
