Just 20"!!!! Sorry Brian, but I couldn't help it. 8^)
I'm in the same predicament with this tow vehicle thing. I've got to buy
something. I have a 60 bugeye and will be building an enclosed trailer to
carry the car and then convert to living quarters when I get to the track.
I'm just guessing, but I figure around 5500 (maybe 6000) pounds with car and
a few spares.
The wife loves the Grand Cherokees, but I don't think they're enough. I lean
towards the Durango or Explorer, with towing package, of course. And then
there's the Expedition. These vehicles are all in the 30K range. I'd like to
buy a crew cab 150 with towing package, but the wife say she doesn't want to
drive a truck. It will be her vehicle except when towing to the races. I
wonder if anyone makes a really nice cover for the bed that makes the crew
cab look like an Expedition (almost). Advice anyone?
