So when we take the boat out, I normally have the family with me and we have to take my wife's F150 SuperCrew. Since I traded off my Quad Cab 1500, thats the only option. It does fine, no problems really BUT last weekend I got to pull the boat with the R/T.

It did great. LOVES me some 400+ft/lbs of torque, 8 speeds and 3:92 :smileup:

Needless to say, even though I dont have the heaviest boat in the world, it did great!

Got to tow my Kendon dual ride-on motorcycle trailer with my brothers Dyna loaded on it. Granted not much tongue weight, but my lowered R/T handled the job great.

Thats awesome guys!

Love the RT towing the RT!!

Im going to to go pick up a 91 Ramcharger next week. I'll be looking at around 7500 lbs with truck and trailer. Probably going to use the F150 for that job.

I tow a 20' bass boat with my R/T all the time. Even got into a race one morning heading to the lake with a mid 80's Chevy PU. I think he was shocked that I went by him towing my boat. It was fun watching his buddy punching him in the shoulder and laughing as I went by them.

Of course they had no idea how light my Allison boat is.:D

Nice find on the "Little Red Express". Is that a 79?

I tried to buy one of those back in 79 and just couldn't get the deal done. Cal Worthington Dodge wanted both my left and right nut and I was only offering my left.:D

Thanks, and yes. It's a '79. And they still want major body parts for them, but the wife and daughter have already laid claim to the vitals. I was supposed to be getting my daughter a decent ride to go off to college in when I came home with this. LOL. Oh well.

Good looking truck and 210 there dude! I run one of the largest Nautique parts departments in the world so give me a heads up if you ever need anything for the boat.
Thank you sir!!!
It's hard to tell from the angle of the pic, but that's actually a 216 :) I bought it new in 2004. It's been a great and versatile boat!

But I may take you up on your offer. I'm gonna have to replace the heater core this spring. I do appreciate the offer!!! My local nautique support is not great.
