Towing with Express 3500 15 pass
Hi everyone. We have been looking for a new tow vehicle. With 4 young kids we were looking at a suburban 2500 but recently drove a 15 passenger express 3500 and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was ...

Hey guys thanks for the replys...there were a few reasons I was interesting on the 15 pass. One, we have four kids with the possibility of adopting 1 or 2 more in the next 5-8yrs. But the major reason was space for stuff..right now our sub is packed bottom to top for a five day trip without camper. As the kids grow that is more stuff. If I remove the rear seat out of a 12 passenger van that leave me with almost exactly with what my sub has. 8 seats and a large back area. Although I could look at a hitch carrier or top carrier for the v an when I'm not towing.
For those that had or have one...with 4 kids do you have enough room for stuff or does it get cramped? Wish you had more space?
Burbman..I was asking about maneuverability because that is more important to me than the extra space. If this combo is a nightmare to work with then I will go 12 pass. This Wil be my wife's dd. We have driven 15 pass vans before but for mission trips and never really had a problem with them. But that only has been a few times.
I was really looking at a 09 with stabilotrac and the 6.0 6 spd combo....I don't need low miles but around 100,000 would be fine.
