We have the Nissan. Our trailer is only 7,000lbs loaded (estimated). We only have three kids and they LOVE the room in the Nissan. We had suburbans before.
Towing is night and day different with the Nissan. Our last suburban was an 08 2500 4x4 with the 6.0 gas engine. This van could run circles around it. More power, less shifting, and better brakes. I could only be happier if the van was 4x4 which was an expensive aftermarket option.

I would not overlook the Nissan, we are very happy
The current NV 3500 is a 7 speed. I think 8900 lbs max tow rating. Is your van a 7 speed?
Yes, our van is the 7 speed. I will try to look in the ow era manual today for towing rating. My trailer is light compared to some, so I wasn’t overly worried about the max, anything over 7500lbs was more than the first suburbans we used to pull this trailer. I thought the towing rating went up with the 7speed. They also increased hp with the 7speed
