We aren't talking about towing a 5th wheel or a horse trailer, just a small / medium camp trailer. Kinda / sorta towing is sufficient. Don't need a vehicle to be best in class at anything, just sufficient for the various things I will ask it to do. which will include hauling 2-3 kids plus dog and wife. Can't do that in a pickup. I can in an SUV.
I'm curious why you think a truck cannot carry 2-3 kids plus wife and dog.
The new trucks (we just got an F150) have massive back seats. There really is not much functional difference between a truck back seat and an SUV backseat unless your wife or kids like to wear really tight short skirts which makes the truck harder to get in and out of. But running boards solve that problem.
