In Topic: Towing question for a 16 ft aluminum

going by this, http://www.trackerbo...s.cfm?boat=3885

your package weighs around 2300lbs, what you'll be most concerned with is tongue weight. a v6 will tow it, make sure the transmission can handle it, the extra torque needed to get it moving will put added stress on it and cause it to fail earlier than it should. a transmission cooler will help reduce that stress and allow the trans to work more efficiently

sorry flyer forgot to mention its an 1999. Not sure if design and material would have the changed the weight at all or not.

hmmm gets me thinking, thanks for the inputs.. Anyone towing with a Subaru right now lol? i want a pick up but still unsure which i should go with. Definetly a v6 is the route. I dont think my boat set up can weight that much? Im thinking just under 1700? Im not sure tho i havent weighed it.
