Boat, trailer, battery (or batteries), fuel, life jackets, etc... will put
this boat at 6000 lbs if not more. You really need to get it weighted at a local truck scale to know for sure. I would hope you have a friend who has a truck you could use for a couple of hours. You want something with a towing capacity of 7000 or more to be able to maintain a decent speed with it. Since the Rendezvous equipped with the optional towing package is only rated for 3500 lbs - Definetly not. The extended length Trail Blazer / Envoy w/ the V8 is rated to 7000 lbs which should work fine. Also I am sure the Expedition, Yukon, etc.. are probably rated about the same or more and would work fine in an SUV. Otherwise - full size pickup w/ V8 engine. -- Tony my boats and cars at http://t.thomas.home.mchsi.com "Jim," wrote in message news ![]() I mentioned I got a 22' crestliner this year. I need something to haul it with ( my Chevy Caviler is NOT gonna do it). I've tried researching on the net, but Crestliner seems to no longer make cruisers (the boat I got is an 81) How do I find the weight, and can someone suggest a reasonably good tow vehicle, that will also serve for daily use around town. Given the price of gas, millage will be a consideration. I like the looks of the Buick Rendezvous, but is the towing capacity sufficient? |
