Re: [A/S] Re: Acura MDX as Tow Vehicle
Mark -
I have towed with about every category of tow vehicle over the course of 35 years.
Each tow vehicle I bought was always longer, heavier and more powerful than the last one
as I kept looking for that extra measure of safety and stability. Now I have a 3/4 ton
long bed quad cab 4X4 pickup with a V-10 engine and finally I can tow through crosswinds,
truck wash, and down hill curves without a death grip on the wheel and that vague feeling
that comes from feeling that you are not in full control of the TOTAL rig. If you want
don't like pick-ups, and prefer an SUV go for a 3/4 ton Suburban or an Excursion, they
have the longest wheel bases and most heft of the SUVs. If you like vans a 3/4 ton van
conversion can also be a fine tow vehicle. Tow vehicles are one case where super-sizing
is the healthy choice off the menue.
