You aren't going to try to tow with that, right? I think the Navigator is rated at 5500. It has 330 cu in and 300 hp. I have a one ton boat and no trailer brakes. The heft it has is more than handy. We tried to pull it behind a Ranger and it didn't like to stop. I have a 94 horse Mercedes that is rated at 150 tons, 300 if you connect the brakes on the railcars. Whatever Casady Are we supposed to be impressed that Dickqueless Krueger has an SUV with twice the horsepower of someone else's SUV? Wow...that sure does it for me, but it doesn't change the indisputable fact that Krueger is snarky, worthless piece of ****, and worthy only of being filtered out of usenet. I successfully towed a boat the size and weight of Krueger's behind a V6 Ranger without problems. You don't need a 350 hp SUV to tow a 19-foot boat.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Man, for someone who tried to tell people he had a mechanical engineering degree, you sure are stupid. Horsepower is far from the only variable in the equation. Take a Ford 8N tractor. I believe 26hp. If on solid ground, I'd pull your boat, AND your SUV around like they were toys. Mechanical engineering courses my ASS. |
