An Isuzu Rodeo V-6 2wd would be a great choice for towing an MG. Economically priced with a 205 HP V-6 with 4500 pounds factory rated tow weight capacity!! You won't touch that tow rating at the pric

My two cents. Why tow? I thought MG's were to be driven. How do you plan on using this tow vehicle? Once or twice a year for towing? Maybe once every two or five years? When you're not towing is it g

Hi Dave, et al., Guess I'll chime in and put in a word for the small V-8-powered Dodge Dakota SLT. After decades of running used stuff, I bought a 2002 this past summer. They have two choices of V-8s

Forgot the 4wd part. I think 2wd with a locking diff is better for almost all conditions when tire slippage is a problem. Less maintenance, no costly transfer case, front diff, u-joints, etc. repair

My towing choices are almost exactly the opposite of your plans. I have a 1-ton dodge van with a fuel injected 360. I bought it used, and since it was 12 passenger I took out the rearmost seat and p

Don't ignore an I6. My F-150 will pull a house (but it's not for sale). It doesn't like to go over about 70, but it will hold speed going up the hills on the WV Turnpike with me, wife, and two kids (

I'll second Stephen's motion - don't rule out I-6's. I tow our autocrosser with my glorified family wagon - a '96 Jeep Grand Cherokee - that has the old Jeep 4.0 I-6 (roughly 200 hp and 200 ft lbs.).
