My mother-in-law gets the front passenger seat ... She is not as mobile as she used to be! :-)
Anyway, we are looking for an SUV under 5k pounds to tow behind the Greyhawk ... With enough room behind the back seats to keep the pups happy and comfy enough for my OAO in the back seat.
Any recommendations?
Thanks!
Regards,

We recently purchased a 29MV and decided to sell the 13 Avalon and replace it with a Subaru Forester (manual Trans) for a daily driver and as a TOAD. I had read "many" pros and cons about this vehicle as a toad, (even the dealer didn't know), so I went straight to Subaru web site with my questions. YES, it is a great TOAD. (3300 lbs). We just yesterday returned for a 1150 mile trip towing the Forester.
Plus, while we were on the trip, we carried another couple to dinner one night, The other couple were rather large people, and expressed how comfortable they were in the roomy forester. Don't forget all the room behind the rear seat. You really should check the Forester (Manual Trans) before you consider something else.
