Had great luck with my 5.7 Tundras. Currently on a 2014. I'll keep buying them. Good highway truck and also for towing.

Lifted F250 KingRanch diesel.

Well maybe I need to trade in for a new one.

F-150, cloth interior V-8

Unlike a boat, a truck just doesn't do it for me.

I like my 2015 F-150 Lariat, but I would upgrade from my economist and get an FX4. Then again, the return of the Raptor made me skip a beat!

Love my 14 Tundra 1794 edition. I do wish Toyota made a 3/4 ton pickup. Not sure how the half ton would do pulling a travel trailer. We have a motor home but would love to upgrade to a larger travel trailer or fifth wheel.

I've had my current pull vehicle since I bought it new in 2006. I just put new wheels and tires on it and I really like the fact that I can carry plenty of gear with me secured in my bed.

Re: Your dream tow vehicle...... - 04/17/17 09:42 PM

That looks sort of like my truck except mine is just a plain ol' 2014 GMC with a 5.3 V8. I do sometimes almost forget my boat is there while pulling it.

Oops, wrong picture. I meant to quote the post with the black GMC

MagFluker, do what I did buy your wife the 1/2 ton version. She loves it.
Posted By: MagFluker

Re: Your dream tow vehicle...... - 04/17/17 11:28 PM

Great idea on your part, I'd have to flip that though, she needs the 3/4 ton for the 4 horse gooseneck we own. I'll take the 1/2 ton and a new boat wink

I had a 3/4 ton gmc Yukon xl 4x4. It was the best, most conformable tow rig I've had. I had to have a pick up foe work. Otherwise I would have one now.

Loaded out high Country or Denali gmc 2500hd. Add a leveling kit and 33s. Not to big but still has that lifted, big tire look.

I have a '14 Toyota Tundra with the 5.7, it pulls so good that I don't even feel the boat back there.

Re: Your dream tow vehicle...... - 04/21/17 05:02 AM

I run a 2015 Ecodiesel with great success.

However I'm wanting a Tundra, but I'm scared of the mpg. I'll probably end up with a 3/4 ton Mega Cab 6.7cummins.

That's what I have. I'm 6'7" so I don't need the lift. 4x4 on a steep wet ramp with a track unit is nice once in a while. Only a few ramps are that steep and my home lake is. The longer boats with bigger engines are tough to pull out. When its busy the ramp is wet along way up the hill. That 4x4 is a pain to buy and a gas mileage hit that one should use unless you must. I live in the country and we need it to get out at times. The 250 rides much better than my 350. The 250 is a little over kill for a bass boat because a 150 gas will pull it just not as well. I have all three and like the 250 better. They all will work and so will a chevy. Boats don't buck much wind like a tall load on a trailer will. They slip through the air good and that is why the 150 can get it done. Good luck.

Last year I totaled my 06 Ford F-250, I loved that truck... I've heard so many people talk bad about the 6.0 motor but mine did great!!!! I had a 7.3 before that and several times I would be hauling my toyhauler 70 on the highway and it would just die... That's a scary feeling the first time that happens for sure!!!! Luckily I could pop it in n and it would fire back up.... Anyway, great looking truck, wish I still had mine!!!

Re: Your dream tow vehicle...... - 04/23/17 02:15 PM

I already own mine. 20mpg pulling a bass boat in my Ram Ecodiesel. Not another truck I know of that can claim that. Extremely comfortable ride, great interior, great looking, and 440 ft-lbs of torque. Love the interior layout, the radio/media system, and pretty much everything about the truck.
