Our 2013 traverse had hail damage was told it would be fixed brought it in and now alas it’s totaled. So my boat weighs 1400 pounds not heavy but seems to take it’s toll on any vehicle we use we tow 6-9 times a week with most trips being 20 mile round trip. I know a truck will suck more gas but I drive 5 miles to work. I want something that can just tow a boat without the trans blowing up. The traverse has been nothing but trouble. I would say not leaning toward any SUV and my loan capacity may be low. Looking at a 2014 Ford FX4 with 3.5 with 125,000 miles seems OK pluses minuses? We have had mini vans which we liked but none can hold up tranny wise. we have a Ford Edge which has been nothing but issues as well but paid for. Have not had a truck in years the thing I liked about a SUV is locking all your gear in the inside with a truck need a topper and possible theft easier? Thanks a big blow to us we need to get a vehicle very fast
