My suggestion is to rent a UHaul trailer. They would be a lot less expensive than a Suburban. All the latest 4Runners come with a hitch receiver and plug in wiring; all you would need is a ball mount and ball.

This.
A good cargo box is $400+, then add another $400 for good bars and towers because the factory crossbars are too low. If you ever want/need this gear in the future, buy it... If not, it is expensive and annoying to store.
That said, I have the Thule Force (large) with the aeroblade crossbars. I have driven thousands of miles with this setup with zero problems.
