Nissan Armada, whose towing?
 
Read some reviews that say it is rated at 9100 with the tow package plus self leveling rear. Anyone using one?

I had a Infiniti Qx56 witch is the same vehicle(just all the upgrades). The self leveling system is very cool. I once towed a bobcat on a heavy flatbed trailer and it pulled it ok but you definitely knew it was back there. Nice truck how much weight you plan on towing with it?

About 6k, 30ft. cat and also considering a mod to pull my 4ft trailer behind the cat. I've seen RVs & others pulling campers then the fishing boat behind. Don't know if that kind of setup would work.

I would think with that kind of weight it would handle well. I also used to pull a small boat about 4000lbs and it was like it wasn't back there. I would advise getting 4WD in case your a a steep ramp. If your not dead set on the Nissan check the Infiniti out. It has a lot of factory standards however it is more money. I liked that truck a lot so to me it was worth it. Good luck :cool:

I tow 6k regularly with my 04 Armada. You never know it's there. Overally very happy with it. I will be towing a 9000lb Baja next year with it!

Donnie my buddy has one and tows 7500-9000 all the time, I' ve driven it and was impressed. It does have power as well as a nice ride, suspension seemed up to the task. Jeff

Blue By You has one that he towed a 25' Ha-Ha Outlaw behind for a couple seasons. His is 2WD, and he stated it tows well.

I tow a 28 Daytona on a steel trailer and it pulls nice. I do a lot of around town towing though it is a little underpowered for regular highway or hilly terrain. I guess if you don't mind going 55-60 on the highway its ok. I'm guessing at its heaviest my boat full of fuel and gear ect is about 10,000lbs including the trailer, but it could be less.

get a wd hitch for the double rig on the back of the 30 foot cat on the back of the nissan........that weight distribution hitch will handle all your issues...maybe 2 of them...???..also throw some airbags somewhere...everywhere....what else.....you need to run 2 electric break set ups....dial the 4 foot trailer to come on real hot...dial the boat less.....that should do it:D :evilb:
