Thanks for the input zogg. This is the first of several trips, unfortunately. My kids are right at that age that we plan to do trips like this every summer for the next 6-8 years.
My experience with the 4.8 is different than most folks opinions. Maybe my tolerance is higher.
Based on this premise there is no reason IMO to wait on purchasing a new tow vehicle as trips like these for the next 6-8 years may well wear out the current TV that has 95k on it and why not improve your capacity and peace of mind now before you embark on these journeys. There are many good options nowadays which will easily meet your needs and give you reserve capacity.
