How big is your family? Ages - approx. weights? What kind of camping do you think you will do - primitive (need generator), always in improved RV campgrounds etc.? What do you want to take with you; bbq pit, extra camp table, folding camp chairs, bicycles, etc.? Remember that you will need to take a fair amount of tools, jacks and levelers with you in the event something breaks.

These are not prying questions; they are literally what you will want to use to ascertain what it is that you will take and what it will weigh. I know if you've never done it before but weight, weight, weight when towing long distances, and with "big" weights, is extremely important. A failure when overloaded with a vehicle incapable of controlling it can be disastrous. Let us know - and thanks.
