Standard Vanagons range from 2800 to 3300 pounds. The type I and II
busses are lighter by about 600-700 pounds. If your thinking about towing
be sure to get a standard tranny van.
In the real world I think I'd select a vehicle with front wheel drive and
use a car dolly.
The weight distribution on Vanagons is acceptable for car dollys but is
marginal and you can experience some wandering of the Vanagon on the
dolly.

Best of luck to you.
