I would definitely want to go with the V8 Titan... the longer wheelbase should help out too.
Willing to consider F150s or Silverado/Sierras? |

I was just checking to see if you were set on only JP brands or if you were open to more options.
|
when it comes time to buy, I'll go drive 3-4... Titan, Toyota, F150, Dodge 1500, and maybe the Equator - need to do more research on how it does towing 4K lb loads
|
Hey Travis,
We have both a supercharger for the 5.6L Titan as well as the 4.0L Frontier/Equator.. Truckin' Magazine has an Equator with the blower on it.. should be coming out soon. :D Just sayin.. lolol |
haha... might actually consider that if there is one already built, but not interested in another 'project'
|
If I were to buy a truck it would Def. be Chevy/GMC.. I have my dads hand me down GMC 1500 4x4 1995. Its got 240k miles on it and runs strong as hell!! Engine and tranny have never been touched.. 4x4 works great. Ive towed boaats , cars , everything you can think of.. built like tanks. Dont look as good on the outside though as the nissan and the interior sucks
|
My favorite tow vehicle for the moment would be the Silverado. The interior isn't as pretty as the JP vehicles but it can tow with ease.
I think the Suzuki would have a problem if you were using anything other than an open aluminum trailer. The Chevy would be able to handle a steel trailer or even a closed trailer. With all the rebates that were flying I've seen people pick them up for $23K brand new. |
I'm very happy with my 07 5.3 Tahoe. It pulls very nicely.
|
okay thanks all... lots to consider
|
I vote 5.7 tundra. My dad has a crewcab, and that beast doesn't give much to my car until about 75 from a roll!! Simply amazing vehicle... Without the Trd supercharger. Not to mention decent mileage and 10700 tow cap...
|
My vote for JP: Tundra

If I had to tow a racecar, I would trust none other than an F150 or Ford Super Duty.

Though if I ever had a DD truck I wouldn't mind a Tundra. :tup: |
Still considering Ford - the mfgr incentives could entice me to buy new
Just created this on the Toyota website... $37K pre-tax... I think the goal would be to find this same config but in 2007-8 model w/ 30-40K miles... I should probably ditch the TRD stuff, and save a couple grand... I may stop by the Toyota dealer next few weeks to see what kind of used inventory they have that is similar... Anyone know if the truck changed substantially last five model years?
