The other question you should be asking is "Is it legal?"

Nice looking flatdeck. A 3/4 Ton Diesel will get the job done fine. I pull mine with an 04 F250 6.0L and the truck is willing to run faster than i am.

I don't know what the law is in Texas but in California I can garantee most of the guys out here are out of class when towing their boats. You actually need a class a license (trucker license) to tow anything over 10k pounds (total wieght truck/trailer/boat) and/or over 50' in length.
and yea, I'm out of class too :rolleyes:
