Check out the Wolf Pup 16BHS. It comes close to your specs.
Is your Explorer a V8 or V6, factory tow package?
Mine, with the V6, just barely handles that weight. If your kids are of driving age, or if the wife would consider it, consider taking two vehicles to allow for the weighs needed to be carried.
This is another one like mine but only 7 feet wide. This is a popular layout for single axle.
The advantage of the Dutchmen Aspen Trail version is the width providing a larger dinette and wider bunk. That Wolf Pup is light though at pretty much 3K dry.
Some of those hybrids, however, with three bunks are running 3900 and 4K dry weight. That MIGHT work meeting their requirements, but that is pushing it very hard for that tow vehicle. Four people? Hitch? I'm thinking they are going to be over capacity for the TV unless they are little kids.
I don't think I see them doing it with their requirements. They are going to have to compromise somehow.
