Best tow vehicle for family of 6?
We have 3 kids and one (and last!) on the way. We're looking to buy a new RV, but finding a towing vehicle that can accommodate all of us AND tow an RV big enough for us is an issue. Any suggestions...

I don't have a trailer yet - but we've done a lot of tent camping with our 2014 Nissan NV3500. GCWR of 16,000 pounds, rated towing of 8,700. It gives us enough capacity for the smallest quad bunkhouses, plenty if you are willing to use one with double wide bunks or have two sleep on the pullout and dinette.
Just about a month ago I hauled myself and 11 boy scouts 500 miles to a weeklong campout, with full gear. I can't speak for towing yet, but it is a very capable van and to me the best option for our family of six.
Vans aren't pretty, but it's much more flexible and has far more cargo (and passenger) capacity than any SUV. If you really want 4x4 Quigly does a factory authorized conversion for around $10,000.
