Re: what do you tow your trailer with

I kept my old 96 S-10 Blazer 2 Dr. 4x4 for pulling the boat (22' Cruisers Gm I-6 50 gal. fuel and FULL of beer and fishing gear) or 4 wheelers/snowmobiles. Works great- does work a little bit going up our steep launch ramps, but does the job nonetheless.

Welllllllllllllllll.....

I don't have an updated pic of the 1 ton since we bought it...so I'll show the other truck that'd tow the boat..
My 79 F150 2wd

Here's the 1-ton, well, what it used to look like. I'll try and get a better pic and edit it back in tomorrow. Cuz it looks 110% different now. The wrap was for the guy we bought it from, and thankfully, he took it off before we got it :D
2001 F350 4x4 7.3L Powerstroke (auto trans :( )

99 Dodge diesel. I pull a 27ft fifth wheel and my 24ft Arriva. Yes have done them together. It makes for quite a train, all 73 feet worth.

Nice boat, I sold my 21 ft Arrive 230 hp last summer and got a 24 ft pontoon boat.90 hp 2 stroke.I pull it with a 2004 Dodg Ram ThunderRoad ,Quad Cab 4x4 Hemi.I bought it new and it only has 41,000 mioles on it today.
