Re: What does everyone tow their boat with?

I use a 2003 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab SLT Plus 4X4 with all wheel drive and a 3.55 gear set. The truck has a 4.7 liter V-8 with the heavy duty cooling package and a factory class IV towing package. It has four wheel disc brakes with anti-lock. I pull a 2003 Caravelle 187LS Bowrider which weighs in around 3660 with a full tank of gas (30 gallons). This truck does a great job towing the Caravelle.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Steve
