Alright people, I need some suggestions, and opinions for a new rig.

This years trip to Moab and UT explorations, we were camping for the first 4 days, in a different spot along the trails, etc. That meant driving fully loaded everywhere we went. The roof rack, cargo area, and half the rear seat were loaded down, leaving enough room for the three of us (wife, son-13, and myself).

This has brought us to the realization that the Amigo is getting to the point of too small for a family camping/wheelin rig. The boy isnt getting any smaller, so we want to keep the Amigo and possibly transition it into a hard core rig. Or just keep it as is and have two rigs; my son will be driving soon and a second rig would be handy.

Here's what we are looking for:
* Have space for 4 people, and our dog (80# labradoodle)
* Have 4 doors
* Cargo space to contain supplies for a week - 10 day excursion (kitchen, shelter, clothing, food, tools, water, fuel, spares, etc)
* Capability to run the same trails I have been on with the Amigo: 8-9 rated trails on a 10 scale, or 4+ on a 5 scale (Holy Cross, Iron Chest, Behind the Rocks, Golden Spike, etc). Will probably shoot for 35s and lockers.
* Comfortable enough to spend a day exploring the more scenic trails

Here are some of the rigs I have been considering, but not limiting to:
95+ Isuzu Trooper
84-91 Chevy Suburban (3/4-1T preferred)
92+ Chevy Tahoe/GMC Yukon
? FJ60
? Grand Wagoneer


Thanks for the assist!
Keith
