Three kids, 2 dogs, TT, choices.

TT is under 8.5k loaded.

Tow TT with Generator running to keep dogs cool using a extended cab pickup.

Or

Tow TT with dogs in tow vehicle, requiring a Van or perhaps Suburban. Van or Suburban will be limited to just the TT we have, not much bigger because they don't seem to be rated higher than about 10k.

Any other choices other than some uber expensive custom job?

Looking for ideas.

  • I fit 5 people and 3 dogs in my crew cab last week. Not fun or something I care to do frequently but it's doable. If you run a generator, I'd buy one of those remote weather sensors and monitor the trailer temp. I'd hate for the genny to quit running, throw a breaker or whatever and kill the family pet. My $.02.
