As I see it you have two choices if you wish to upgrade to a van.snowycarter wrote: we have a camper trailor and we are thinking of upgrading it to a van just woundering what vans can be towed by the forester and any sugestions would be appreciated oh and it must be offroad as well
1.. Forget the idea of off road. There is not much to offer in the way of black top vans that your tug can handle. True off road vans will be 50% heavier than black top models. That will put them way out of your league.
2.. If you do wish to tow off road then stick to the camper trailer.
In addition to what I said above, the light weight European vans are OK to tow into national parks and the like providing there is only a few kilometres of bad stuff. They will all survive good gravel roads like out to Birdsville. Just forget tackling things like the Great Central Road unless it had been fairly recently graded, the Tanami Track or the road to the Cape.
