Looking, but... No Trailers for Neanderthals
We sold the Jay Flight 32BHDS last spring, and downsized to an F-150. Thought we'd be done camping for a few years, as the kids hit high school, and all would go well. Hmmm. Well. THAT was a farce...

OK. No hybrid - I understand not wanting to go that way.
So, one question, what do you mean when you say "camping"? Do you mean the drive out to the forest/wilderness for a fews days/weeks and play? Or do you mean go to RV Parks and sightsee?
If the former, maybe it's time for the kids to go back to tents. They're getting older and will be on their own soon. Buy them each a 2 or 4 person tent and tell them it's time to get used to "roughing it" again. This way they can start to build their own camping gear over the next few years, bring a friend or two with them, do some camping without the parents, etc. And by the time they are living on their own, they will have it all down pat.
In the meantime, you can buy a trailer that will fit you and your wife and not worry about fitting them - this will give you more choices at less cost so you can invest later in the bigger truck and perfect trailer for your "childfree years".
