when you have 2 adults, 4 kids, two large dogs, campng gear, full tank of gas, full cooler for the weekend, food for the weekend, and firewood this is when we tent camp. This really adds ups, yes my X squats in the rear but no problem. and did we buy these large vehicles to worry about the gas milage? i got mine to travel to camp sights, pull a TT, and pull my utility trailer with dirt bikes and all the saftey gear inside the X so it is out of the elements. Next step when the X wears out is a 250 or 350 van with the v10.

Monsta,

Yeah sorry...I did mean loaded with family and gear BEFORE I drop my TT tongue...then I actually go over the "rated" 8900#'s for my V10 4x4 and tip the scales with a GVW of 9160!!! (this includes the tongue weight as applied to front and rear axles)

All my weights are verified by a certifed scale...

I was VERY surprised myself to see just how freaking portly she was BEFORE I dropped the tongue load on her!...scales don't lie! LOL
