28 feet is as you discovered too much for a mid size SUV.
Dry weight is kind of meaningless. Instead start looking at GVWR for your next trailer.
Tandem axles will be easier to tow and back. Single axles tend to jacknife more easily. Thus your husbands desire for a tandem axle trailer.
How much does the Acadia scale loaded ready to travel? How much is its GVWR? Those two numbers you need to pay attention to to wind up with a satisfactory towing experience. With short SUVs you need to lok at the shortest lightest possible trailers that will fit your family. Have you conaidered tents for the kids?
