Look for payload, payload, and payload. My family of 6 weighed in at 1200-1300 when they were teens. Add in another 1200 or so for hitch at, 100-150 lb for the dog and crate. You need a rig with 2500-3000 lbs of payload. The ONLY options you have entered is the E350 van. Or if you can find a GM 3500 with a BB gas, then that will work too.

Unless a crew cab pickup is an option, you are stuck with.van.options. been there do.e this!
