    For me,
    ’03 Liberty pulls the 16.5′ Sylvan Backtroller just fine.

    In da water: 55 Suzuki, 105# Motor Guide Pro Tour front & 55# Cabela’s Minnkota Tournament on the back.

    2004 Ford F-250 Crew diesel towing Ranger 620. Diesel does cost more, but for me the towing fuel mileage and benefits make up for the cost.

    I think someone from Minneapolis is driving my truck now and someone from Canada has my boat. Thanks for slamming the knife home. Just kidding. Someday I will have a truck again, and hopefully a very nice accessory behind it.

    04′ Tahoe

    Hopfully the Tahoe is pulling the 04′ Crestliner to it’s new owner in the morning. Then on the 24th it will be pulling a new Skeeter.

    Here’s a pic of what it will look like after a trip to the Skeeter Boat Center on the 24th.

    You saw my boat, but on the Roadways, you’ll know me by the Tire cover.
