I think that the statement, "His cons are that it's a lot more work than tent camping" may be referring to the maintenance of the TM (or any RV for that matter).
The one nice thing about tent camping is that once you get home, clean your gear and put it away, you're done with it until the next camp-out. You don't have to pack the w/brgs, wash the camper, store the camper, change the tires, fiddle with the wiring, buy new tires and battery every few years, own an appropriate tow vehicle (and maintain it) etc, etc, etc.
I think that one must enjoy the fiddling with these darn things as much as the camping. I know that if I only camped once or twice a year and didn't care for messing with the trailer, tent camping may be a better option for us. However we camp a couple times a month and working on the TM is a good hobby for me.
