I've got an Expedition that I use to tow my 3,000 lb rig. It gets about 15 on the interstate alone, towing it gets 10. I plan to keep the Expedition but want a small 4 cyl straight shift pickup that gets good MPG.
The stats say that both 4 cyl Toyotas and Nissans are rated to tow 3,500 lbs. Do you think they are really capable of that? A Ranger is rated for only 1400 lbs so that is a big difference that I don't understand. The size and HP of the Ranger is a little less.
Do any of you pull 3000 lbs boats with a small 4 cyl?
