you COULD pull it with almost anything however like a previous answer said a framed vehicle with rear wheel drive or 4 wheel drive would be great!

This boat would not require a large towing vehicle. Probably a small pickup like the Chevy Colorado would do the trick. Similar trucks are av available from Ford, Nissan, Toyota, etc. You could also sue something like a Toyota Pathfinder, Chevy Blazer, etc. Stay away from front wheel drive cars, though. You want a vehicle with a frame. No “unibody” vehicles. Four wheel drive is nice, especially on steep ramps or ramps with slippery seaweed on them.

You couldn’t have picked a better time to buy a preowned SUV !
The market is saturated with them. Which is good for you. A 2 year old Ford Explorer with low mileage & still under manufacturer warranty, will save you about $12-15,000 (vs a new one) And it will tow your boat & trailer with ease!

I suggest getting a Nissan Titan/Nissan Armada. It is powerful and has 5.6 liter engine in it. The good thing on this truck/suv it has a towing mode.

I personally like the ford F series or the expedition.
