Toad for my Bay Star Sport
I am considering a vehicle to tow behind my 2015 Bay Star Star Sport 3309 which is on a 20,500 chassis. My three candidates are a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, a Chevy Colorado 4x4 or a Ford F-150 4x4. The Ford is pushing the 5000 lb limit - I would be limited to a few models, extended cab only that have curb weights under 5,000 - around 4700-4800 lbs. The Chevy has a curb weight about 4,600, so it's actually not much lighter than the Ford, but it is shorter. Jeep seems best from weight and length standpoint. The Chevy has a complicated flat towing prep that requires a battery disconnect (due to steering issues). Both a Jeep and Ford have relatively simple prep for flat towing. I am interested in this forum's experiences...
