Hankie, the Highlander with V6 is rated for 5000lbs...That's "monster" enough for me.

Is HankyPanky trying to trash you because you're not driving a gas hawg?
He's just an asshole...not worth a response.

I was just tweaking him a bit. In case you didn't notice, he's quite
tweakable. He just doesn't have the will power, that you do, to resist
responding.

Actually, Don, I didn't read that the Highlander could not be used for 'serious off-roading'. Is
that really in the manual.

As the Highlander was my wife's car, I didn't read the manual much at all.

Also, the Cayenne is no slouch when it comes to towing ability:

Body Cayenne Cayenne Tiptronic
Length 190.8 in 190.8 in.
Width (without mirrors) 76.3 in. 76.3 in.
Height 67.4 in. 67.4 in.
Wheelbase 114.0 in. 114.0 in.
Drag coefficient (Cd) 0.35 0.35
Curb weight 4,398 lbs 4,475 lbs
Towing capacity 5,952 lbs / 1,653 lbs 7,716 lbs / 1,653 lbs
(braked / unbraked)


Actually, the Cayenne is a lot more monster than the Highlander. The Tiptronic is a whole lot more
monster.

Glad you posted that. If Donnie has any brains he'll get some electric
brakes or surge brakes for his boat trailer. Most vehicles in his class
have a 1000 lb tow rating without sup. brakes.

If you had any brains you'd realize how hard salt water can be on boat trailer brakes.

Well, yes I do have brains. Thank you very much. Your lack of same leads
you to be a menace on the highways.

You just have to get disk brakes. And maintain them. Electric over
hydraulic is the best. My boat trailer is 6 years old, and the UFP brakes
still work great. Only problem in last year was a fluid leak. Was at a
brake line joint, and the connector had some crap in the threads.

Donnie can't even operate a computer and you expect him to maintain brakes?
