Have you actually been in the 22ft Bambi? Looking at the exterior there is very little if any storage for stuff you wouldn’t want inside. That’s a lot of money to be paying for nostalgia and name. Since you are both chef’s, I have to assume you will want to bring along a lot of cookware, knives, spices, cutting boards. All well and good but all have space requirements.
Take time to figure out what you want to bring along in food stuffs, clothes, towels, cookery, eating stuff (plates, utensils, glassware), electronic equipment including blenders, warmers, countertop items and envision where it all is going to go in whatever size you think you want.
Also, taking a quick look online at the specs for the X5 they tell you the weight of the car, how much it can tow, hitch weight. What I don’t see is the gross combined weight rating (GCWR) which is important to know. If it says the max weight or GVWR of the x5 is 6,000 and it can tow 6,000 that doesn’t mean you can fully load up the X5 and still tow 6,000. Perhaps your owners manual will have this information.
Just my thoughts
