Re: Towing a boat with a 2002 Ranger V6 without 4x4?

I just found a few sites with the stats for the V6 and the towing capacity
is 4000-4100 pounds. I should be in good shape,especially with my small
towing distance. As long as the tires dont just spin when coming out of the
water I will be fine :)
