Great vehicle. Nah, he really wants a 34' trawler, and he'll need a Silverado 2500 with a turbo diesel to haul it comfortably! He'll need more than that. Definately NOT enough truck. Try a Dodge 3500 Dually, with a Cummins and a variable power module. I doubt Don or anyone else rational has much interest in a heavy 34' "trailerboat" or the sort of overgrown truck you'd need to tow it. That's for sure... if I wanted that big a boat, I'd be mooring at one of the numerous yacht clubs within a half hours drive from here. Somewhere between your little 12 footer and the mammoth 34 foot trawler is your new dream boat. |

I liked the Tundra until they upsized them about 6 years ago. The Tacoma would be more practical if they would raise the cab roof and windshield about 3 inches |

That is, any boat of size. I wouldn't think of hitching my 18 ft. Chris Craft behind my wife's Honda CRV. |
