My E-450 is already heavy so I don't want to push it over too much.

and I'm a pick-up guy so I haven't completely settled in with the idea.
I have 3 kids so I'm thinking that limits my choices a bit... seating for 5.

I don't know... just food for thought....
2010 Jeep Wrangler Islander 2 door soft top has GVWR (max weight) of 4900... So even FULLY loaded would be just under your 5000 lbs. But with seating for 5 - you are likely looking at the 4 door version I would guess.

I still expect the unloaded weight would stay under 5000 - just some care in what you pack in the Jeep. I hang a bike rack on the back - but otherwise keep it pretty empty/light.
