Well when you have a family of six…

Oh I though that was what the mini-van was for. They must be out of style now.

I have a Chevy Astro cargo van and the towing capacity is 5000#.

 

[highfigh]

Why would you want a Suburban anyway?

I don't, but they're ridiculously popular.

They did indeed. Still…NOT cool. Maybe with a “Sport” sticker on the side.

The storied Prelude name is back, now applied to a stylish-looking gas-electric two-door that Honda says prioritizes "the joy of driving."

The old Prelude from the eighties was a nice car.

That’s a small camper. And also NOT a minivan. Lol

 

[William Lemmerhirt]

I attended the Gator Nationals once, about 30 years ago, good time. One of these March trips to Fl I've got to get to Garlits museum in Ocala

That guy’s a legend. You won’t believe it, but I have a scale version of the wynncharger on my night stand!

Minivan's usually have a hitch, although many only have about 2000 lb towing capacity. However, not all campers weigh 5000lb.

Yeah, even Honda accords have hitches lol, and definitely some campers are less than 3k. Ours is about 7500lbs. 27’. Pretty typical, but ain’t no Honda odyssey pulling it!

A lot of people are building campers that are very small, but I'm not sure I would want to be so cramped- if I build out my van, I could use that and it's much higher than those little teardrop jobs. In decent weather, I would want to sit outside or under a canopy but a van like mine isn't bad with seating. Still, it's nice to be able to stand up and walk around inside.

I like the idea of building a van into camper. But having the space of a TT or 5th is hard to beat. If I was taking a road trip to genes down in Florida the van would be sweet!
