Thanks for the comments!
I would also, with my wife, be using our SUV mostly for short and local driving. We intend to use the TM to support occasional camping trips and disaster relief efforts. There’s no telling how long we would drive on the DR trips, but I’m just assuming it would usually be over 500 miles one-way.
I am thinking that we would not haul water, as that would be provided upon arrival. We would normally have the two of us and groceries, with very little gear, and a modest amount of clothing.
We would also try the SUV for a year or two and then progress to a better towing vehicle later, if needed. I wouldn’t want to do any damage to the SUV tranny in the meanwhile.
