Tow vehicle

What do you guys use as a tow vehicle? I can't have a truck since I plan to use the SUV as a baby mover/family vehicle. There are not many SUVs that can carry more than 5000lbs. Is 5000lbs enough or should I look for more in order to be safe? I will only tow <8 times a year.

I prefer to trade the Z on a new SUV, but I guess used ones are always better buys and I have more options. I just don't want to deal with the hassle of having to fix them since my garage isn't big enough for me to work on an SUV.

My wife prefers the Honda Pilot for new vehicle. I prefer the FJ/4runner. The reason for them is that they leave me enough $$ to buy an autox car and a race car. They also have excellent resale value, that's why I would only buy those cars new.

Of course I am still tempted with that orange tts i saw
