I tow a 26' Century center console with twin Yamaha 200's using a 2006 F150 4X4. Get around 8-9 mpg towing around Florida. It's well within rated load limits and tows fine.

 

Is there a good place to rent flatbed trailers for towing vehicles? Uhaul around here never has one in stock and they're about $75 a day. I want to see how my truck tows with this lift & 37's.

 

about to buy a 26’ century, i have a 2002 sequoia 4.7L 4x4 do you think it can handle the tow? Just short 40 mile tows to the dock no mountains.

 

Go ask on a Toyota forum.

 

^^^^^ Better yet, trade it for a Ford.

 

NO, that Toyota with the 4.7 engine is not rated to tow a Century center console boat. The boat alone weighs in at 5800lbs. Add weight for any options, plus the weight of the motor. Motor is probably another 500lbs or more depending on what it is. Then add the weight of the trailer and the usual crap most people throw on a boat like rod/reels, bait, coolers, tools, drinks, etc. and you're a lot closer to 7500lbs or more than you are the Toyotas max rating of 6200lbs. If you had the 5.7 engine, the max rating would have been 6700lbs, still an overload for the Toyota. You're into 3/4 ton truck territory to do it safely. The issue isn't pulling it, the issue is having brakes big enough to stop it. Even with trailer brakes and a 3/4 ton truck, stopping distances will be long.

 

I have a 08 supercrew with the 4.6l and 3.73 gears. i tow a 6k lb triple axle dump trailer regularly. Truck does just fine. Yea its a little slow on take off but its not bad. have 33/12.50 on 20x12 too.
