Re: What do you pull your boat with?

2005 Toyota 4runner 4.7 V8 2wd. Use to haul my boat, 2005 Glastron sx170, my dad's boat, 1979 Bost Whaler 13 Sport, and my 1977 Bronco. The bronco is the only one that causes any strain. MPG goes from 18 unloaded to 10 with the trailer + bronco. Trailer brakes are a requirement with a load that heavy. Don't think I have any pics of any of the setups though.

And I've never been stuck on the ramp for lack of 4wd.

I thought I had this in here before but could not find it. This is the first heavy thing I've pulled at speed so I know it's back there, but stopping is not that much greater than without it. MPG's drop from 14 to 8-9 without any hills. The hardest thing is keeping it between the lines.
