Thank you kindly for the speedy replies. I'm going to be packing in a lot of miles and probably only staying a few days at each location - so, renting a car at each location will probably become very inconvenient.
The van has a 2" receiver hitch so it can tow it's own trailer if necessary to relocate the trailer. We don't know what kind of places we will be staying at (Assume the gamut) as we have not yet planned our itinerary. I'm figuring probably 62-63" overall length of the combined rig.
Thank you for the suggestion on the Jeep Wrangler. However it may be a problem as we need 7 seats - hence the attraction to use our existing minivan.
Do trailer parks usually have a place out of the way we could disconnect the trailer and then keep it off our campsite until we are ready to leave again? That might solve the issue of storage for the trailer while we are camped at shorter camp-sites.
