Be careful with the fuzzy math. Any passengers in the NV vans deduct from the advertised 8700 lb tow rating. Not any different from all the SUVs, but that's not how Ford rates their vans. Just be sure to look at the GCWR and make sure you will have enough.
Also, the NV 3500 has a payload as low as 2,480 lbs and max payload of 2700 pounds. That's less than a Ford E150:E The problem isn't GVWR in this case, its actually a very hefty curb weight approaching 7,000 pounds. That's 1,000 pounds more than an empty Ford or Chevy 1-ton van.
