What do you guys tow your boat with

We tow our 2006 240SD with a 2006 Nissan Titan Crewcab LE
 
It took me a while to get a picture. Here is what us "gals" tow with. Just traded up last year from a Chevy 6.0L gas to a 2004 Chevy Duramax/Allison.

The picture was taken at a friend's home in Lake Havasu, Az. Almost all of the homes have "rock" landscaping. I love it, no maintenance and little watering!

2001 Chevy silverado 5.3l 1500 ( added a leaf spring to each side in the back to keep her leveled out )

 
It is a little overkill, but that seems to be my style. Stock it was 325hp with 385TQ. Not sure what it is now, but towing the boat is easy, and i can turn sharp becasue all four wheels steer :wink:

It is a 2003 Sierra Denali, with Quadrasteer.

 
2002 ford explorer 4wd with a v6. It pulls it fine but I want to upgrade. My wife has a lexus gx470 with a V8. I use the lex to tow sometimes but something is just wrong with towing a boat with a lexus (according to the wife)

Exactly the setup I started with but with the 8cyl... wife said there was NO way we were using her GX especially after the tranny went out of the explorer... well it's now the lakehouse 'run to the store' vehicle! Didn't look at what you are pulling but I'd like to hear if you have any trouble with your transmission. (there are several sites that have owners rantng about the '02 explorer transmission)(and not ones pulling anything necessarily). Hopefully you won't!
