No a trailer tent is not the dark side.   We have just won one on Ebay.   We had them before and the are just large frame tents in their own trailer.   
I am still hPpt with an ordinary tent, but Richard can not get up off the floor. Although I am happy to go without him Alice wants to her dad to be able to come with us at least once.   

We even had a folding camper for a few years, but it was too small sleeping wise, and needed loads of attention.   

It's not your unit that is important, but the way you view camping.   You can sit outside hour massive double axle caravan and be sociable go your fellow campers or have a tiny tent and treat campers who dare to do differently with disdain just as easily as vice versa.

Yoda Rules!

If I wasn't on my own I think I could be tempted by a trailer tent - further for the 'orrible little slugs to climb, for one thing! Less crawling around, too, which is becoming harder as time goes on. For short breaks I still take the trusty old Peakland Monsall; with the larger Vango I'd want to be staying a few days in the same place. But a trailer tent - well, best of both worlds, I reckon! Have fun - and I hope you get the awning zip fixed.
