I specifically went with the v10 for a reliable yet decent tow vehicle. Most we may tow in the future would an open deck trailer with a side by side or two.

Largest thing would be a 7500lb gross travel trailer. But that's a ways down the road.

Previous owner had dogs in it so I pulled it in the garage and am shampooing the inside tonight. Hopefully it will get the pet dander smell out of it.

That may be a little easier then the smoke smell i had to deal with, took about 4 deep cleaning's to get rid of it.

haha yeah I saw one that the previous owner was a smoker... omg!

Just got done shampooing the inside, five buckets pulled out of it. Made sure to slap some fabreeze on it just to hide any other smells. Now tomorrow I call a local shop to bring it in to have them double check everything to make sure it's good for a daily driver.
