I think the only thing possible as a tow vehicle for you would be a 350/3500 van. Not enough payload in any of the SUV's for 7 and a large trailer.
This is the best advice so far - regardless of what pickup you get, where are you going to put 7 people? These vans can be picked up used for a reasonable price.
