Current vehicles that I am considering:
- Toyota Tundra
- Ford F-150
- Nissan Titan

The question I have about the Tundra is the towing capabilities of the truck. I have a 4,000 LB boat on a tandem trailer and am wondering if you've got any feedback on the truck's towability.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

On my 04 AC 2wd V8 with Tow package and brake controller, ive towed a car hauler with my 94 Toyota prerunner on it for a combined weight of about 4200lbs. IT did great. I just left OD off and even used the AC on the way home from the desert.

No matter what truck you end up with, have a brake controller installed.

Although i would never consider another Nissan, ill be fair and say it has much more power than the Tundra, although the 05 closes the gap a little with the VVTI heads.

Im not a Ford guy either, i will admit they have a bigger motor in their favor.

Let us know what you decide.
