Can't comment on FC's or caravans, but we bought our 1st TT this year, Trigano Galleon and love it, the main advantage over anything else for us is that fully laden its <500kgs which is the towing limit of our car. We also went for the full awning, sun canopy and bedroom side annexe, but will limit ourselves to just the sun canopy for short weekends as the awning is a bit time consuming to put up. BUT, huge amounts of space. Trailer is so light, and braked so you can't tell you're towing anything. mpg dropped from around 50 to 45mpg on a trip from West Wales to Devon. At the end of the day, everyone has their own preferences, I would go see a few in showrooms, have some demo's in putting it up, then look for a good 2nd hand one, if you don't like it, you can sell it on the next year and won't lose any money.

At the end of the day, as has been metioned earlier in this thread it all depends on what you want from the unit.
If you just want comfy beds, and dont want either a loo unit or hot and cold water, then I would say that a TT would be just right, but if you want/ need a little more "comfort" then a FC might be what you need.
Then there is the whole world of which one do you get, do you go for quick erect, which tend to be more expensive, or do you go for a more traditional one which takes much longer to erect, or do you push the boat out and get a self erecting one! http://www.holtkamper.com/Products/WindForce-System.html,
Enjoy looking whatever you decide, and I hope you find the right unit for you
