[QUOTE="LaqueRatt, post: 510635, member: 32586"] The tow vehicle is part of the equation. I don't understand why people will dump a bundle on a boat and then put themselves and their toy at risk by being too cheap to go out and get something adequate to tow it with. Maybe spend less on the boat and use some of the savings to get a decent pickup truck? Most any full sized truck will tow all but the largest boats with no trouble. My Silverado is rated at something like 6200 lbs. It's nothing special either. 2WD, 5.7 V8. IMO it's asking a lot of an SUV, especially a FWD to tow anything. For $hit$ and giggles call a transmission shop and price getting a trans replaced on an SUV. It ain't cheap. For our SRX it's 6k. You think I'm ever going to tow a trailer with that car? [/QUOTE]
