Towing a Fountain 47
I'm just curious - if you own a 47' Fountain what are you using to tow it? I looked at the specs on an F450 and it still seemed like it might be a little shy...

I only answered the OP question with what.... I ..... would tow it with. Plus I could not resist! Its winter and I am bored! Just having fun, no hard core debate needed. :drink:
After reading the OP again, I think the question is actually trying to ask actual owners, where at first I thought it was asking hypothetically if we owned one. (screen is blury driving down this washboard road...where does our tax money go again??!!) :eek: Either way my answer is serious, even though I know others will not agree. I tow a similar setup everyday for a living, with no problems. Currently writing this while my G/F takes a turn driving over some rough Iowa roads! I do have upgraded wheels, tires, air bags, hitch, EOH is a must along with a top of the line trailer. |
I tow mine with a ford f450. It is on a myco tandem dually which is an excellent trailer with alcoa wheels, Goodyear commercial tires and excellent brakes.

You are saying right now that you are pulling 23,540lbs off the BACK of your 3/4 ton? The weight comes from this thread: http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/f...-location.html
Stick to the original posters question and stop derailing the thread! |

Why are you trying to ruin this thread? You have followed all of my posts and threads. We have pm'd each other what I "thought" was some good conversations. Stick to the original posters question and stop derailing the thread! But in fairness the link I posted shows what two other people use to pull theirs with,( F350 DRW, F450 DRW) so I am being helpful! |
