I think I'm going to be trying to get a vehicle I can tow a boat with this summer, but I'm unsure. Trying to get ideas of some sort of fuel efficient vehicle I could tow a boat with, but I'm coming up blank. What do you all tow your boats with?

Depending on the size of boat the Ford Escapes do a great job!

Borrowed a Chevy pickup with a v8 vortec once, omg... It was like 5mpg, but wow did it ever take off from a light.

Ford escape? That's a good option! I am considering just using my ford focus :lol: but I know secretly that's a terrible idea

I got old turbo diesel suburban. Of course with a bigger turbo, chip, exhaust ect. Lots of space for gear, and even sleeping and pulls anything ever had to pull. 20 mpg light, 16ish towing my boat. Wouldnt trade it for anything cept maybe a newer one with a duramax if they woulda made them
