Mighty Maxima

[b15philly]

I use old reliable...my 2003 Nissan Maxima with the VQ35DE 6 speed Nissan's iron horse motor its very unconventional but it gets the job done for now, plenty of power for towing:cheers: a single ski. Looking to get a Chevy 1500 SS that's a bad ass truck

yeah you can tow a single ski with pretty much anything; my mom has a class II hitch on the back of her 97 caravan with the 2.4L 4 cylinder and it tows it just fine; can't tow my boat but it does great with the GTX

I know my car has enough power to tow and I can get a hitch put on, but it is rear wheel drive... isn't there a chance it will slip on the launch ramp?

the other day at the launch I saw a 350z pull out 2skis so I guess if u can get good traction anything is possible

I use my 03, 9-3 for towing. It tows up to 3,500 lbs w/ trailer brakes, 1k w/o.
I installed the OEM hitch & harness which is hidden when the receiver is off and I have no problems getting in and out of the water. Biggest issue is that the car sits really low so I usually avoid using any nature-made ramps that might have uneven terrain.

I'll post pics next time..

If you cant dodge it ram it!

03 dodge intrepid gets it done here not to good for duel trailer but pulls one just fine!

A mini has enough power to pull the trailer… the problem is, if the trailer starts t sway… you don’t have enough weight or enough wheel base to get it under control, but a single ski won’t give anyone problems.

I have the exact same car you do. How is it on the ramp? Normally I will use my Tahoe, but nice to know the Max may work.

It does just fine on the ramp I have had no problems with it pulling at all
