Towing a large vehicle

We currently tow a 37 ft TT behind our 15 passenger van. We've started toying with the idea of getting a motorhome. We have 11 kids so a smaller vehicle isn't an option. All of the GVWR numbers make my head spin a bit. Does anyone tow a large/heavy vehicle like mine behind their MH? We've found a couple of gas MH's that have 5000lb hitches on them. Is there a gas MH out there that would have the power to tow more than that? Are we crazy? (We are on a pretty tight budget and are looking for used MHs)

TIA

you will need a MH with a 10K tow capacity hitch and theres not a gasser alive that will have a HD hitch and the power or the GVCC
that will do the job:: Also theres no MH,s out there that will work for 11 kids
