The camper does well, we've had it since 08. It's big enough to fit the four of us if the weather's so bad that we can't go out and we can fit a bunch of stuff in it while we're driving. But it's not so big that it encourages the kids to stay inside, and our minivan without the HD rear suspension can hold the tongue weight without sagging too much.

Believe me, I thought about trying to fit the kayak inside the canoe, but it has a crossbar that won't let it work. Still, it's good that one of the kids is big enough to run her own boat instead of just being a passenger. And this is a lot cleaner than the canoe on the van and nothing on the camper.
