Since money is no object....I'd have one of each to use for different reasons/trips/locations. Probably a Class A, a B or C, and my truck and trailer since I already own them!

I would stick with what I have now which is a class 8 tractor and 5th wheel, can carry a Smart car on the truck for sightseeing tow the largest 5th wheel we want and spruce up the truck to use as a side trip motor home type for visits to spots the 5th wheel can not fit.
If price was no object I would probably upgrade to a newer truck with more customized features

The 5th wheel and truck would provide the most storage and flexibility for me if I was to full time in an RV. This is the most cost effective combination and get the most bang for your buck. I would get a 41'+ 5er and a long bed dually to tow this with. The 5er has more living area and storage for my needs. The truck would be easier to service and can be used to go where ever I need to go.

With a motorhome you still need to pull the toad either 4-down or on a trailer of some sort so these cost need to be factored in also. Plus you lose living space with a motorhome do to the drivetrain and operator station needs. Plus they look like a brothel in my opinion with all of the mirrors, finishes and decorations in them.
