IMHO...
Mommy bags make no scene unless you have to personal carry it to camp. They are not about comfort they are about weight.
Fancy fill fibers are likewise all about weight. In general, the more you pay for a bag the less wear it will take. I have a very nice light mummy bag that I use every few years for snowshoe trips but if I'm jeep camping, especially with the wife, I go with the biggest roomiest zippytogetherest bag I can find.
The challenge I have found is finding a bag that is rated for really cold weather but is not a mummy. I camp all year around and won’t really mess with a bag that isn't rated to at least 10*f. I gave up being cold at night years ago.
If I had a RTT I would use a big one like the cabalas’ and use it with sheets. I would also bring a big blanket to go over it on really cold night or use along on warmer nights.
Heck with a RTT the world is your oyster why mess with a mummy.
