Van or Trailer

[cortttt]

Hi Everyone,

       If money wasn't a factor in the decision making process, what would you prefer for living full time in.  A van, a converted cargo trailer, A van and trailer or a 4x4 pickup and trailer.  I'm constantly going back and fourth in my head.  I have a 2013 Silverado Z71 that can tow a converted trailer no problem.  I've done around 12,000 miles of road trips in my old 03 Chevy Express and enjoyed every bit of it.  Longest trip was 2 months.  Right now the local Chevy dealer has the Chevy express 2500's for 24,250 and I could basically trade my truck in and add a little cash and leave with a brand new van.  However, if I keep my truck I have 4wd and can access some nice back country.  But I know the trailer will limit me with not being able to go everywhere the truck can. 

         Appreciate any input you have.

Matt

I've only tried living in a 4Runner and a van so I can't say - but that's a great deal on a new van...Aren't you shaving 4 or 5K off the price right there? Maybe add another 5K or whatever it is and get 4wd and have space, comfort and capability (?)

They are taking $7500 off MSRP of any Van on the lot.  They are selling fast though, last I checked they had 6 left, started with 20.
