I’ve already found some helpful hints on this forum and look forward to finding more and providing some as well.

Have a good time!
Just be safe!
That Armada is not/never was designed to be a tow vehicle, it was designed as a people mover. It may tow "really well" but it's extremely overloaded as per it's design.
That yellow/white sticker most likely has your payload about 14xx lbs, that's your RV tongue weight at nearly 1000lbs, the hitch at 100-125lbs (hopefully you have a weight distributing hitch with sway control), everybody/everything loaded in/on the Armada. With 5 people loaded up with their "must haves" plus the tongue weight you're already overloaded before you put anything in the RV.
So as a member of the "weight police" just asking you be aware & be careful with your family onboard.
