Here's one of the things I tow:
1999 Air nautique with a 351 Windsor.
I also have a 1993 malibu flightcraft and i occasionally borrow a friends tractor and drag it out to Marshall, TX.
Not towing, just hauling..
A guy i work with bought a huge swing set off CL and i helped him disassemble and haul it to his house... the owner was real nice, kept offering toys and stuff to him...
If you listen close, you can hear the "Sanford and Son" theme music in the background...
Not with my F150 but this pic reminded me of hauling a jungle gym with my Tundra.
Well this is my first post on this site, I must say it has been very helpful so far! I am an avid member of a jet ski forum so I have utilized the crap out of the search function for a few weeks now, so please don't jump down my throat for asking what may end up being obvious questions.
Second, I figured I would post up my new to me 2004 F150 Lariat Supercab. Black and Arizona Beige, 2 wheel drive. I flipped my 2000 Ranger on black ice and totaled her out so I upgraded to the F150. I wanted 4 wheel drive but I got this truck for a complete steal so I couldn't pass it up!
I thought I would post my truck and what I tow since it gives a bit of info on my hobbies. No pics of the ski(s) behind or in the truck yet since it is winter, but here they are!
2004 F150 Lariat Black/AZ Beige. Stock for now, Hankook Dynapros coming this week for the factory wheels, and some black 22's this summer. Window tint in the next few weeks and I am thinking of dropping the back to level it out, not sure what size drop to go with yet. Already had weathertech's at my doorstep when I brought her home.
What I tow: 2004 and 2003 Kawasaki SX-R 800's stand up Jet Ski's. This ski in particular is currently setup with an 1100c triple cylinder engine out of a Kawasaki ZXi sit down. Runs 61-62 MPH on pump gas. Been riding since I was 7 years old. It looks nice and warm in the photo, but I am from the Detroit area. Thats out in AZ!
Just picked up a "new" (to me) 24' car trailer to upgrade from my open trailer
Sorry not only is it a bad cellphone pic but where its at now I cant get a good angle on it so it looks longer then it is (this was by the front corner with my back against a fence.)

Very nice trailer, how long did it take you to get the truck and trailer unstuck from the snow bank?

Belive it or not it was never stuck in a snowbank, a foot or 2 farther under the trailer is clear driveway (was planning on putting trailer under the gutter for the house but its borderline to tall so didnt), the snow on the side is where I brushed the snow bank on the edge of the driveway getting it in (can see the tire mark in the snow from one of my attempts at parking it).
And just for the record normally getting it out of unshovled snow isnt the problem (done it 3-4 times at work now with slightly smaller open trailer and deeper snow) its getting it there in the first place that sucks.
Yeah, dry weight is only 5100 and it's just me and my wife right now. I have a prodigy brake and WD with stabilizers. First tow from picking it up (1 1/2hr) went great eventhough I know it was empty. Taking it out for the first time at the beginning of the month.
Need some pics, but i haul a 16' flatbed that i think weighs 6000lbs with bales on it, a 15' dump trailer that is 5000lb dry... and the coolest of all, A trebuchet!
