I hope the newer ones are better, because the V-6 in my not so new Explorer causes me to think of that gross juice drink. "WOW, I shoulda had a V-8!" Stu _____________________________________________

My first question is how much does the trailer weigh... but even with a light open "economy" trailer (like I use with my Spec Miata), you probably want a towing capacity of >4000 lbs. I've been consi

You failed to mention over what kind of terrain you'd be towing the trailer and Tiger. That's an important piece of info. I'll echo a couple of the guys who have answered already...if you get an F-2

Are you going to tow occasionally or multiple times a year? Long distance across mountain ranges or just across town? If you are only doing one or two trips a year, you could get away with a mid-siz

Thanks for all the response. I see my question was incomplete due to my own lack of experience with the issue. The trailer I have in mind would be an open flatbed, not a heavier enclosed. My ideas at

Haven't towed the Tiger, but my 2003 5.4 Expedition handles the '41 Continental pretty well, and it is heavy. I bought the 5.4 and not the 4.6 for that reason. If I didn't tow much, as I do/don't, I'

I have a 2002 Ford 150 5.4eng. and it pulls my 19' enclosed trailer just fine, (albeit 10MPG). I pulled it to Covington, KY a few years ago and also out to Big Bear last year with no problems of any

Another thing to consider is wheelbase, the shorter the wheelbase the worse it is for towing. Also when towing be sure NOT have the weight too far back in the trailer, the trailer will start dictati

My experience is with hauling horse trailers. A couple of horses and a trailer add up to about the same as a Tiger and a trailer. I only trailer about 1% of the time, so I was looking for the minimum

I put the Tiger on a 16 foot flatdeck trailer and towed it out to SUNI with our 2000 Tundra. The only concession I made was to turn off the overdrive on the transmission - it hurts the mileage a bit
