Some guy towing a 35' or bigger fiberglass houseboat with an i/o, behind a new Nissan Frontier! His eyes looked huge, the man was scared to death! The arse end of the truck was sagging like a gangsta's jeans http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif I don't know where he was headed but he definitely didn't have enough truck!
http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/doh.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif Does anybody look at GVWR? 'bout 4 or 5 years ago, I saw a Mustang GT pulling prob. a 20' camper down the road... Don't know how he did it, or got by the DOT http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/doh.gif
I bet that steering was easy http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif
Over the years I have seen some incredibly stupid things on the roads.
He was 2 miles from a steep ramp, no way he could have backed that heavy boat down that ramp......... Maybe he was delivering to a repair shop.....still not near enough truck!
My BIL's dad used to tow my BIL's TR 19 with an 85 Toyota 2wd. He said it was easy to steer. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif
Should've had a Mazda RX7....he could have pulled that boat and the Frontier just like they do up here http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/roll.gif

Hell we towed my buddys old arse BMW back with a garden hose when we were teenagers. It worked, had to loop it several times though but we got there.
I can just picture him trying to back that thing down the ramp at Jamestown.

Or going down the hill at Beaver Creek or Lee's Ford! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif I didn't hear of any wrecks so evidently he made it out of this area anyway.....
on the way back from Athens, AL saturday night, I saw a guy towing a bayliner with dual screws with his Nissan Titan. Trailer had triple axle and the boat looked at least to be a 26 foot cabin cruiser.
See it all the time here with the Saltwater guys...... 30ft cc with dual 200s and a explorer ot a Toyota Tacoma with a 35 ft cuddy........
Cus bragging about how big your boat is part of your manhood...... who cares about the truck.
Whats funny to me is 20 years ago no one would think twice IMO
Dad towed a 22' cuddy cabin with an astro van for years. Never had an issue

The day I picked up my boat from BPS, I saw something very similar....a guy leaving with a 30'+ cabin cruiser, towing it with a Jeep Wrangler.
And to think they made fun of me cuz I was pulling 19', 3300 lb rig behind a 1 ton dodge dually CTD....they said I needed more truck !
