Let's see your Tow rigs with your boat!

Nice shine Bfun220!

[Bfun220]

Fresh from the painter. Too bad the color is off a little and it will be going back in the booth.

I hate that. Happened on an Audi I had years ago. Deer jumped off a cliff above me onto the hood.

Could never get the color right after that.

What the heck kind of suicidal deer you got around there ?
I should be ok. The paint manufacture has my old hood and is brewing the next color. It's good to have connections.

[Big Block Power]

This is a great shot.
Well it sure didn't tow like the Escalade.

What was the diff and why? Engine size?

What was the diff and why? Engine size?

Yes it's all engine and power. I don't get it how people pull larger toys with these. They pull but it's just so much nicer to have power when you need it. I don't pull slow I like to get in and go. Get out of my way I'm getting to the lake This one had the same suspension. I hooked up the boat and the level ride compressor kicked in. I never looked to see if it had it. Happy it does.

I'm with you BB. Self-levelling is a nice feature. Our new rig has it and the first time I hooked up I heard this odd clicking sound only to realize it was the compressor levelling things out. Works so well it will kick in when the dog hops into the back. Self-levelling is a whole lot easier than using a weight distribution set up when towing cargo trailers or RVs. Though you won't see me tow a big RV without a Hensley Arrow.

As for power, I'm a 'whole package' kinda guy. I won't power to brake, accelerate and handle the weight. You gotta be safe across the board. I don't want anything to happen to my family, friends or others while I am towing the Cobalt!

Your new set-up looks perfect. Well done!

I wonder how it will look with a 222 behind it?

[Big Block Power]

I was too busy to call today on the 222. It does everything well. I tied with the same engine for years so i knew etat I was getting. I was hoping that the few changes they did with the engine it had improved but not much. I don't think the P.O. Ever towed with it.

Big power difference between the 5.3l and the 6.2l.

Big power difference between the 5.3l and the 6.2l.

Oh my gosh. It's so noticeable. I think a 100hp and a bunch of torque. I'm not a spec guy so don't quote me.

[Tuscany]

Big torque difference. Just keep the tow mode locked when you run to the lake.

Yes it's on. Agree Keeps it in a gear higher and r's up. The tow haul button also boosts line pressure for better holding power internally in the trans.It has the same trans as the 6.2 but feels and shifts totally different.

Gorgeous big block!
