Hitdrd, I agree with your husband. For people who travel a lot I think a motorhome is easier to drive (I LOVE driving ours!), it's nicer in bad weather when stopping briefly, there's a tad more safety when stopped because you can stay inside if the area is dicey, it's easier to hook up, and many have other features such as a good generator, dual pane windows, perhaps better insulation. If you have the budget air leveling is wonderful because you just press a button to level with no more jacks.
We've always preferred motorhomes because we don't usually stay in one place more than a week or so and often less. I think with trailers you also have to like trucks and we're just not truck people. It sounds like you're used to driving around in a truck and if you like that, great, but if you want something smaller that you can take more places when stopped for a while then a car might be nicer. And, certainly, one with four-wheel-drive is more fun because you can go more places with it. There are so many tradeoffs when talking about trailers vs. motorhomes! We made lots of pro and con lists when making our initial decision 'way back in the dark ages and decided motorhomes fit our lifestyle better. I guess we made a good decision because we're still motorhomers many years later! ;D
