~ Towing High Speed ~

This is probably a strange topic, but how fast will you honestly admit to towing your boat? Size?

Re: ~ Towing High Speed ~

this will be an interesting thread. As for me, slow... 3/4 ton 454 suburbans dont like to go more than 65-70 with 11,000lbs on the back. I have made the dallas to sarasota trip twice with it. No tranny problems. I havent pulled the boat with the new ford.
