With a decent bed cover plenty of storage for the daily routine - strollers, etc. Can make for an excellent daily if need be. Alternately maybe another Cherokee or a Durango.

Oh yeah, we've towed with my dad's 7.3L F-350 but I don't like having everything exposed in the truck bed overnight at seedy motels. I agree though, it's so nice just tossing everything in the truck bed.
Prefer something slightly smaller but a truck would be an ideal option if it weren't for us already having one down the street (my dad's) and the lack of secure storage (a bed cover could solve that issue though...). Could be an option!
