Towing a boat in winter freezing temps...

Cold weather wont hurt the boat at all. I pull my Senator with a 2 wheel drive Trailblazer and it pulls it just fine.

That is going to be one LONG drive to get that boat and drag it back home.

Leave it alone! It's mine... I hope!



The Trailblazer SS has 405HP and 400TQ. Lets strap the dud(ge) up bumper to bumper and see what happens! :lol::surf:

I picked my starflite up in a foot of snow with my chevy. its only a couple inches off the ground. i had to have the guy pull it out to the road for me to hook up. i dont think i stopped once the whole way home. :eyecrazy:

Just make sure the bearings are greased up good before you get under way. :bigthumb:

Crappy thing is I was JUST UP THERE for X-mas! Didn't have my chit together so I couldn't get it yet....:irked: Wasn't a terrible drive... 19.5 hours up and 18 back... towing the boat I won't be able to sustain 90mph though.

i'd also like to see where you hook up the trailer to that SRT-8 with that fancy center exhaust.......may not be as fast but i'd rather have the bow tie SUV
