Your Dream Tow Vehicle / The real world tow vehicle

[Fish'n'Allthetime]

Nothing beats an'88 Suburban!!!

Its everything today in one!!!
Power, clearance, room, its everything....but more rugged.

Today's vehicle aren't a match for yesterday's 'burb!!!!!!!

[Fish'n'Allthetime]

Yeah, 4x4 'burb....That's how it goes.... Add a winchx2, lift kit....and you're good to go....That is how its done.

Id have to go with a Ford Excursion all decked out.

In reality I tow my Nitro 591 with a 03 Ford Explorer.

No one likes the Cadillacs, or the big Dodges?

I already tow with an Avalanche so it's close but I can see me in a Cadillac Escalade or Hummer or Suburban with all the bells and whistles.

I just don't get the likes of the exports especially when it comes to towing. I don't see any of the exports ever coming close to all the NA trucks mentioned here.

[joco]

the us truck are strong..this is true

but i dont think some off those export truck sher can pull.

ex.
toyota tundra,381hp,5,7l.10800pound capacity
nissan titan.317hp.5,6l,9400pound capacity.

they might do the job pretty well...and be more reliable plus keep there value a bit more.etc.



but again still like the suburban.


little toyota pulling..

How the heck are you guys gonna get to those little secluded lakes with your boat if you drive such large vehicles...A Hummer will not fit down most trails to get to lakes....Now a Cooper Mini with a Class 3 tow hitch and a 383 jammed in would be perfect...Of course we are talking about no money concerns right??? Or how about a little MGB with a roof rack Right now I do not have a boat or tow vehicle but every one of my friends do

joco ~ that video reminds me of the boat ramp in BOQ last weekend. Only is was not lack of power I was dealing with it was lack of traction.

funny video for sure! thanks for the laugh

Reality, I drive a 2004 Nissan Pathfinder. It works really well. I love it in comparrison to my last vehicle - 1996 Ford 150.

If I had a dream ride it would be a full size extended cab Dodge 3500 Turbo diesel 4X4. Either that or a Ford F350 4X4 Turbo diesel as well.

Right now I'm rocking my 98 ford windstar, towing around my little 14ft glasstream bassboat, it does the trick.

In a dream-world though I'd be looking for a Tacoma TRD offroad quad-cab for the trails, or a Dodge Ram 2500 Turbo diesel for the long-haul highway runs.

[Placide]

Hummer hands down!
Reality 2003 Dodge Dakota.

if I won the lottery

I am with you getthenet. Toyota Tacoma TRD offroad Quad cab. Either in Lund red or factory painted camoflage. I just love the look of the 4 wheeler bikes in camo colour. It would have to have a sunroof, skid plates and those cool lights that are mounted in the back to help you back up when you have either gotten to the launch before sun up or have stayed out after dark.

My absolute dream tow vehicle would have to be the Coors Light voyageur bus. Fully stocked of course.
