Pappy, I've been through the same thing you're going through. A few years ago when we decided to sell our pop up, I tried really hard to find a travel trailer that we could pull behind my wife's Toyota Sienna. I looked at TrailManors, R-pods, all kinds of different travel trailers and I came to the conclusion in the end that it just wasn't worth the stress and possibly the risk of an accident with the Sienna, so I ended up buying a Chevy Suburban to tow the travel trailer that we eventually ended up with. I don't think minivans are suited to tow any kind of a travel trailer. Popups, yes. Travel trailers no.
Believe me, I tried to make it work but in the end, I came to the conclusion that the weights and the stress of towing a barn door through the air just don't work for a minivan. JMHO.
