Our old tent trailer slept 6 of us comfortably, on a mattress. It had a stove and a fridge. It had tons of storage for anything we wanted to do or play. It carried our bikes on the back. Oh, and when it rains it's not a completely miserable existence.
It was 100x better than a tent.

It is a serious question.
You shouldn’t be keeping food or cooking in a soft sided tent trailer in the mountain parks.
A proper tarp and tent set up keeps you completely dry in rain
You can easily hall bikes on the back of your car
And in a tent I sleep on very comfy mattresses.
All the equipment fits within two bins and am fully set up in sub 30 minutes.
So once you account for having to drive slower because you are towing it is guaranteed to be faster using a tent as well.
So faster, cheaper, weather proof, and just as comfortable. (Though comfort is a perception thing.
Note I’m not saying trailers in general. I understand the desire for a hard sided trailer. The tent trailer has all of the trailer downsides and only a fraction of the benefits.
