We are in an interesting spot. We have 4 children so we need something with 6 seats, yet we also have a gasoline motorhome with a 5,000 lb tow limit. Any ideas out there on vehicles that would fit out needs?Thanks!

Your way, the RV and the other vehicle must each have 6 belted legal passenger seats.Maybe turn this around: 6-seat tow vehicle and a trailer.

we have 6 belts in our RV. 2 on each side of the dinette plus driver and passenger. Just need to find a vehicle that's less than 5,000 with 6 seats that can be towed 4 down.

I typed in 3rd row seating SUV and came up with several just pick one under your weight limit and brand preferance.

how can you find out what can be towed 4 down?

If you are open to dolly towing, you open up your options to most any front wheel drive vehicle including most mini vans. Most will be under 5K curb weight and can comfortably seat 6.

oh really?? We would be completely fine with that. there's really no downside is there? other than having a dolly at the campsite.

read the article I sent a link to...it discusses 'alternatives to flat-towing', one of which is a dolly

great! thank you very much for the help. For no reason at all, we never considered a dolly.
