I see that many here use trucks to tow Ollies (I & II) and many posts here have also dealt with SUVs pulling Elite I. In considering a possible upgrade in tow vehicle and picking up an Elite I later this year, I'm wondering if a Honda Pilot 4WD with tow package (Touring edition; that is rated at 5000 lbs) would be a good vehicle? I am planning on traveling West so the mountain passes are my biggest worry.
