Bill,
I purposefully left out cargo to get a real world estimate of what the van weighs on a day to day basis. I basically have 3,200 lbs left for everything!.
We looked at the TM 3023 today, that would be our TM of choice. We were very impressed with the TM (construction, fit & finish, etc).
We've also come to the conclusion that towing with a mini-van (specifically the Honda Odyssey) is not the wisest decision. We own our CR-V outright as should be able to get $7k to $9k for it via private sale. That will go towards a used 4Runner.
I'm hoping to pull togther the same analysis of towing capacity for the 4Runner as I did for the Odyssey.
Thanks again to everyone!
-Mike
