Go back and look at the 16 Xcalibur.
Stated weight is with the largest motor.

If this is your boat, says tow weight is 2542. Add any personnel stuff and
weight goes up.


You just aren't going to let it go, are you? He's legal, you can do what
you want with your boat, let him do what he wants with his.

Better put a decimal point in front of the 100.

I just want people to be able to stop their trailers when traffic stops! I
would hate to be hit by some idiot without enough brakes on the trailer or
tow vehicle. I see these tow ratings of 5000# or so one a lightweight,
underpowered tow vehicle. My S10 Blazer had that 5000# rating. It barely
stopped itself!

Donnie has convinced himself that his car will stop an extra 2000 lb or
so without the benefit of trailer brakes. I sure hope he's right for
his wife's sake and the sake of those he shares the highway with. I
personally don't care if his boat decides to come through hie rear
window. Some folks are bent on getting their education from the school
of hard knocks.

Bull****. You wouldn't even drive that thing through a mud puddle, lest you get it a wee bit dirty.

The guy at my office building is very good at detailing!

Thought you were the big shot with two BMWs.
Repo'd eh?

If I had two BMW that were repossessed how could I get a Porsche
Cayenne? I do have a Z4, too, if you really must know.

It would take two BMWs to buy that Cayenne.

Not really. It would depend on the models of the two BMWs. They can
run from about $35K to well over $100K.

So, Ditzy Dan is another of those candy assed SUV drivers who just want to look the part... not actually soil their tires.


Why the bad behavior and name-calling?



When was the last time you took your Highlander for a little off-roading? Paved boat ramps don't

count.

John H.

Don't you read the literature on your vehicles, Johnny.
The Highlander isn't really meant for serious offroading.

You drive an SUV, but you don't do any off-roading. No one mentioned 'serious'. Wouldn't that make
you as much a 'candy ass' as Earl?

Do you think the Cayenne was designed for 'serious off-roading'?

True. Even the new Jeep Grand Cherokee's are not designed for "serious
off-roading"!

It was designed as purely a status symbol, and that's the only thing
it's good for.

That is a very typical response from someone who can't afford one. The
same could be said about any new car by someone who is down-and-out.
