What is your tow rig....
« on: 07/10/08 - 01:14AM »
Just curious to see what everyone uses to tow with.  Also how many don't have a tow rig.

You forgot Jeep Diesel, of course I don't think there is anyone here that has a CRD or Bluetech.

Well luckily I remembered the "Other" category... which is a nice catch all.  I also didn't put YUGO, and I've seen pics of people towing with those.

I don't tow, cause I don't have a trailer, so I'm not sure my vote should count.  If I did I would have to use my pickup and I'm not entirely sure how good a job it would do.  Dodge gasser gets my vote.

Roger... I think yours would be the "i don't have a tow rig". 

It was just a poll I put up out of curiousity.  I did a quick count in my head and was thinking dodge diesels will probably be the majority, besides the I don't have a tow rig option.

Chevy gasser get my vote. The RV is build on Chevy 1 1/2 ton chassis with fuel injected 454 which mean about 8 miles to the gallon. I won't know until I get a trailer behind it which will probably mean about 5 or 6 miles to the gallon. but that all part of the fun  it :deadhorse:

Figured I'd resurrect this thread.  My tow rig just got a new update.  Now abusing a 95 1 ton powerstroke, crewcab, 4x4.  Ya it's going to tow a lot better and be a major PIA on campus.

I have been pulling my rig with an '08 Tundra with the 5.7 and 6 speed.  Pulls it like there is nothing there, and in a hurry. 

Also still using the crew cab chevy dually, Vortec 454, and lets just say that the dually has a whole new attitude now.

You can now change your vote.  And Powerjoke? look around while driving and notice how many more Fords you see, than other trucks... and I ain;t talking about Mall trucks, I'm talking about trucks that actually do some work. The Powerstrokes are awesome my Dad has one, it'll pull anything you hook it up to.
