I’ve noticed a lot of folks on here look at xtracycle as the longtail solution. Is there any reason that people like this over the Surly Big Dummy, other than the fact that perhaps you have told your children not to call each other dummies, and this would undermine your efforts?

Frame geometry. The Xtracycle is much more relaxed. Since my wife is (eventually) going to take over some of the kid-hauling duties, and she’s not interested in the more aggressive frame, I didn’t really look at the Big Dummy. If I were buying a bike just to haul things on my own, I definitely would have tried one out.
