Love this site and trying to learn a bit. I have been getting around 16mpg in mixed driving and maybe 11 towing.

Anyway just stopping by to say hello!!
My wife and I have discussed a similar lifestyle. I was thinking a small car pulled behind a motorhome. How much % wise do you drive the excursion as a personnel transport as a tow rig?

What advantages/disadbantags do you see with doing it with a large tow vehicle and trailer vs small towed vehicle with an RV.
