Forget the SUV. For a tow vehicle, you need a heavy-duty fullsize van. Either a Ford E350 or a Chevy Express/GMC Savana 2500 or 3500. (Or even a Nissan NV2500/3500.) A properly-equipped E350 or Express 3500 will tow 10,000lbs without a problem.

Off the top of my head, something like THIS is pretty much the ultimate tow vehicle if you need a bunch of seats!
