That's really nice! We've kicked around the idea of getting a trailer someday, it would have to be smaller to pull with my -250. Our problem is, most places we would like to go, we'd like to take the boat!

Just have to move somewhere where you can double tow. I have seen people pull some pretty big stuff with a 250.

I've seen guys here pull a boat behind their trailers, but those are little fishing boats. Mine is a 22 1/2 ft. ski boat, that weighs around 4000 lbs.

O sorry man. It is a pickup camper. It goes in the bed of your truck,and with an extension hitch you can still pull your boat.
