So far, I am pretty happy with it; no complaints except that every time I walk away from the truck & come back it has fingerprints on it. Pisses me off. People always want to feel it. My next vanity plate is going to be NO-TOUCH.

It took 9 weeks in the shop and three sprays before we got it right. The paint was sold buy the quart and was FU expensive.

I HIGHLY recommend these products: http://www.drbeasleys.com/

If I break down while towing, they send two tow trucks. I've never used it, but its a great program.
I do have AAA and they will tow your boat (and truck) to a nearby service station. But not from Boston to Rochester NY LOL!!!!!!

And you still use a dually to move the boat. Your's is one of the rare instances where I could agree an undersized rig would be okay "because I only tow it a short distance to the ramp", and you still use a dually. (Now, based on that boat, it may still be undersized....)

Another tow rig for long trips when I don't want to spend so much on diesel fuel. The big orange truck gets thirsty with the boat behind it.
