This sez more about my relationship in or out of a van, but I hate the chef-maid-dishwasher-etc. role I always wind up sliding into in our sticks n bricks (or tent camping for that matter) with my not-neat, accumulator husband. If I were pushed to do that in a smaller space for any length of time I'd probably shoot him. Separate living spaces, so perfect.

Hubby and i joke about getting a little Fiat or Smart car to tow as a 'dog house'. I like the idea of a smaller more fuel efficient spare wheels, but a whole extra van is more likely between couples who meet on the road, no?

It is more expensive for sure. Two depreciating vehicles wearing out components and burning gas and requiring license, insurance, etc. Can you afford it? If so, then no worries... except for there being some added hassles with two.
Nice to have backup in case of breakdown, but also twice as likely to experience a break down!
Also nice to have smaller, more nimble, easier to park, more offroad capable vehicles.
Lots of upside to partners having their own space, and sharing space when they wish.
I've lived with 3 different women in a '84 Toyota pickup with two different very spartan homemade campers that were not very big. For them it was a "novelty". They lasted for 6-12 months... though I later ended up getting domesticated and living with one for 20 years! I don't think more space or separate spaces would have helped much. Rather they wanted things that nomadic living made difficult. Different strokes for different folks...
