GMW Photo, Wow! Gas guzzlers, indeed!! I guess there's no getting around it!! What about the Chevy Traverse or the Tahoe? Will either of those work?
My friend has a Ford Aerostar that they are using to haul an 18' (3,000 lb) Fun Finder.
Correction: Chevy Astro Van.
For a Funfinder like that ( like mine ) either one, a well maintained Aerostar or Astro Van would work well. Both of those were rugged vans with a good solid drivetrain under them. The company I worked for ran a number of them in fleet ops, and they served us well. We ran everything right on out until it was time to go to the scrapyard, so we got a pretty good feel for what lasted vs what had to be repaired a lot.
The trick now would be finding a good example of one on the used market. Most have been used up and sent to the recycler by now.
