So who else tows their boat with their F-body?

Here's a couple pictures of my old supercharged 93 Indy Pace Car that was my daily driver with my Boston Whaler jet boat. The only problems I ever ran into were when the tailpipes started going too far into the water. I had to float this boat off the trailer so I had to back up pretty far.

How'd you know I bought the car from a guy in Pennsyltucky? Then I sold it to another guy in Pennsyltucky! I think he said he was going to use it to tow his apple cart into town on the weekends.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

Probably the only boat hauler that can accelerate and pass other boat haulers on a hill.

That's not my vehicle, it was a friends. He had just sold his white 95 TA 6 speed and got the Explorer. He was engaged and the first thing to go was the F-body!

Well, I asked my mommy and daddy to buy me a new truck to tow the boat with but they said 'no, and no desert until you finish your vegetables'! So, if anybody wants to buy me a truck to tow my current boat with that would help, otherwise I'll be towing with the SS.

You could have kept the old truck.

If it makes you feel better, my 1st car was a 76 Camaro LT, and it had a hitch. I removed it, but it was there.

Actually, the trailer hitch helps to bolt together the rear of the car better and you get less flex and better traction. Towing with a car is just a part of life, no big deal.
