What are you guys/gals pulling with.

[jferrell3054]

I dont know if this is the right place but I am pulling a Skeeter. I am going to more long distance tournaments this year and am looking for a new pulling vehicle. I am not asking for brand just model like SUV or truck. If you are pulling with a truck what bed cover if any are you using. Im looking at dry storage space and security mainly.

Pulling my 21ft Skeeter with a 2010 F-150 Platinuim 5.4 V-8,6-SPD AUTO,3.73 Slip
axle. Bedcover-Roll N Lock tonneau.

[Z518 Comanche]

I pull my 06 ZX-190 with an 08 Ford Expedition. Pulls good and has secure storage.

Buy you a crew cab silverado...

[jferrell3054]

Right now I have a 09 Ford F-150 Lariat crew cab and I keep the back seat area so full nobody can ride. It also has the big v-8 but it just doesn't seem to be right. It pulls heavy and acts like it is slipping when changing gears. But I did come out of a 350 diesel maybe I am expecting to much. I am probably going with a SUV for the security and dryness. Wonder if the Expedition still has diesel as an option?
Thanks for the replies.

I am towing with a 2010 F150 Supercrew Lariat 5.4L. It tows my 21 ft bug with ease. The crew cab gives you plenty of room for your gear. I may soon put on some kind of cover, probably a tonneau of some kind. The bed would be better suited for things like a boat cover, tools, oil and drop cord.

[jferrell3054]

Sounds like I may need to send mine to the shop for a tranny reflash. Both of you pulling with a ford have a boat bigger and no problem. I might just like it after that.

Pull mine with a 4-door Toyota Tacoma, 4.0 liter...Pulls great for not being a full size truck..

[Big Al]

05 Trailblazer with the 4.2 L6, pulls my SX 190 with no problems.

[Mark from Canada]

I pull my 20i with a Honda Ridgeline. It works hard uphill but in the end don't feel underpowered towing with it, stopping is no issue either, but I take my time wherever I go with the bug on the back.

The built in trunk makes this truck worthwhile, I wouldn't want to go without it!

I don't even know the boat is back there.

I pull my TZX 200 with a Toyota Tundra 5.7, absolutely no problems. Don't have a bed cover yet, that's my next purchase.

Good luck in your search.

Pull mine with a '09 Dodge Ram 1500. Awesome job of pulling the boat. Have an Undercover over my bed. I am able to put a lot of extra fishing stuff in there for long travel. It is lockable as well. Not a drop of water has every got inside it no matter how hard it is raining.

Pull my 20' Bug with '07 Chevy 2500HD Duramax 4x4.

[fishin couillon]

Pull my SX 190 with an '05 F150 5.4L 4x4. Pulls pretty dang good.

[jferrell3054]

Thanks for the responces. Looks like a lot of people pull with a truck and bedcover. I will get my tranny checked out and by a bed cover should be good to go then. If all goes well I might upgrade to another diesel later. I love a diesel.

Thanks again

[Jason E]

2011 Chevy 2500HD Duramax...feels like no FX20 is even behind it.

[Rick1067]

I had a 97 F150 (4.6L) and the truck bogged down bad when pulling. I now have a 07 F350 Land Yacht Dually (Diesel). Overkill I know but I stole this thing in February 08 and like Doug, I don’t even know there is a boat back there. The Dually also provides extra control and eliminates all side to side swaying when hitting any bumps.
