Coolest tow vehicles!

jonyb - that's a nice collection of boats and trucks. You seem to lean towards GM, but also had a Ford. Some high, some low. I like it.

Thanks! Those trucks are over a span of about 6 years. Started with the blue 1/2 ton, then up from there. I do prefer the GM's over the Fords, but that's just personal preference, especially with the newer trucks. That Ford was horrible. Solid front axle, 38's, stiff springs.... My wife and I drug our boat down to Nashville to Haugyland with the F-250 1 year when she was pregnant, bad idea

The fords are tough but do tend to ride like crap.
Nothing better than a suburban for towing.

I miss my Suburbans. I've had two and regret getting rid of them both!

I drug my Mariah around for 8 years behind this ole girl. She's known affectionately as "Lil' Mule".


I bought my current truck in 08 and do not miss towing with the Rover one bit. No where near as "cool," but way more comfortable. I can now climb a steep grade at highway speeds without running the heat at full blast.

did you have your boat in a storage unit? i will be moving to the birmingham area around May and if i cant get a house with a garage i got to find some place to store it.

I remember that. I still laugh about how pissed you were about the ride.

I told you to leave it at my house and take my truck, and you'd be fine..........BUT NOOOOOOOO not enough blingy for you.

Hey, we had a great time there though! SAS's with 38's on the interstate aren't fun.

Love the Blazer to start this thread off. Wish I still had mine. GM or GMC for me though like many that posted here.

In order of first truck owned to current, favorite to least favorite, shortest wheelbase to longest wheelbase, cassette to CD to MP3 player, etc. etc.

1998 GMC Yukon SLT
