Their really isn’t much for a moto van that will tow that weight safely. A new transit 350 dusky with a power stroke is rated to tow around that buts that’s maxed out. Pro masters can’t tow more then 5k. And I don’t think sprinter will get you there.

Find a used Econoline 350 or Chevy Express 3500. 1 ton vans with big engines, 8 lug HD axles, thick frames, stiff suspension, big brakes. Long wheelbase and a high GVW will help keep your trailer stable.

The Fords have 5.4's (can be reliable or horrible, a bit under-powered), 6.8 V10 (reliable but thirsty), or a 6.0 diesel (great once bulletproofed- look it up).
Chevy / GMC have 6.0 (99 / 2000 were low-power versions), or 6.6 diesel (research thoroughly, different years had different problems, keep a close eye on the trans).

budget is around 10,000, sprinter types are out, they just don’t have the power. Looking for an extended van or even a box van with a back seat to haul the family. love the ford on here for sale but it’s in cali and i’m in the east coast.

I have a 2018 Chevy Express 15 passenger van, 3500 (1 ton) extended van with the HO 6.0L motor. It works out really well for pulling my camper (12k pounds) and the family. Its equip with 5 rows of seats and when I'm not hauling around the family I can throw my Bolt it On bike rack in and I can haul two bikes safely.

I just turned 37,000 miles and it has another 23k left on the power train warranty. I'm looking to part ways with it due to things slowing down. I've installed a 13K receiver, trailer brake controler, tinted the window, added Memphis door speakers, 500 watt 2 channel Kicker amp and (2) 10" round Kicker Solo subs.

shoot me a text if your interested or want to see pictures. $25,000
