Tow Vehicle Pics Thread

[Fit to be Tige]

I don't know how to do a "build your own Tige" and save the picture, but if you build a 22i, with the "free ride" graphic, it would be cool to have the same thing made for my boat, but say "2100i". Perhaps the word "Classic" someplace. And have the raised chrome Tige logo in the same place as on the 22i... I think that would be very cool.

It just doesn't seem like it should be that big of a deal, and should be doable for a couple/few hundred bucks.

The cost of the wrap depends on how complex you want it, i got mine for
2k installed with a 5 year warranty. He can do them cheaper than that now cause he is doing it all on the side rather than through his company

Last year at buddy's cottage in Minocqua, WI. Rained most of the day, got some great surfing in between rain storms, hit a stump with my prop the week before the 4th of July.

Thats a cottage , I'd hate to see what the house looks like.

Well, actually that is his neighbor's place.

I parked there becuase the owners of that place are from the Phily area and are there only twice a year. It was finished two weeks before I took that picture and I guess they did not come in from Phily until Labor Day to see it. Must be nice.....

Here are two of the tow rigs I used last year, I need to start taking pictures of all of them.

No Pictures but one is just a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7L V8 with Full Time 4x4, towing package and upcountry suspension. With 99k miles it tows the 20V with out a problem and is rated to handle the weight. I use it for all weekend trips and never have a concer being able to get up a slimed ramp. Put it in $x4 low and granny up the ramp.

We also have an 08 Tahoe with Selectable 4X4 and the 5.3L V8. We typically use this to tow long distance trips( 6 hours or more). We use this on long trips because of extra room in cargo area since we have no third row seat and usually keep our Chocoate Labs back there with their own air conditioning. The Tahoe is loaded and has DVD, Nav System, Sunroof, Trailer Equuipment package, backup camera( makes hitching easy), leather seats and a bunch of other stuff that came with the 3LT package. It was bought from Carmax New car Sales for a lot less than the best deal I could get anywhere else. THe only option that is a waste is the *85 Flex fuel option. When we find a station with E85 we punch it into the GPS system because cost has been up to a dime less a gallon and performance is the same mileagewise/

Surprisingly it gets 18 in town and 22 on highway minus the boat. With our 20V in tow we get just over 18 and it handles the load with no problems we have used it to tow a 23ft MasterCraft Maristart Sport which even though it is a much bigger boat it's dry weight is less than the 07 20V. Weird

On feature the Tahoe has is the ability on the road to run on 4 cylinders. When in the flatlands of IL, Indiana etc cruising at 70 mph and backing off the throtttle a tad will drop into 4 cylinder mode which helps mileage drmatically. If you need acceleration there is no discernable delay to get all 8 guzzling cylinders popping. Sad but once we sell the 20V the Tahoe will soon follow for a vehicle that gets great economy, can handle snow and get run away from its own shadow.

Nice thread, I went through and checked out all of the nice rigs. Very cool. I think those green RZ2s are growing on me. They are load, but I like 'em. I didn't get any pictures, but every once in a while I have to take the entire stable out on the Road, like for the festival. But I didn't get any pictures.

I did get this picture, when we took the stable out to the merced event when we launched wake9. The Sierra is my favorite, such a great utility truck, and the Yukon XL is the family bus. The Jeep is my wife's daily ride.
