What vehicle is best for towing a boat?
Your question is one that depends on how big and heavy your boat is. If is is smaller, than you probably can get away with a large V6 that has the necessary tow package but if you are hauling a heavier, larger boat than a full size SUV or pickup may be necessary. When shopping, look at the manufacturer’s recommendations for the vehicle’s towing capacity and see if it will work with your boat. Then consider room and fuel economy as gas prices keep going up! I have found that the need for more power and 4WD is when you are pulling the boat out at the launch and things are wet and heavy and you are going up an incline.
