Hi all, I'm new to trucks. I need to occasionally tow a boat that weights about 6000 lbs all in, around town and on 2-4 hour trips to the nearby lakes. I can do it with my SUV but would like to acquire a cool truck as I have not had one yet and it's time. But the cool trucks have low towing capacity. E.g. the 2002 F150 Harley Davidson tops out at 4500 lbs and (sorry) the Chevy SSR only tows up to 2500 lbs. Probably 4wd would be good to have a bit more traction on slippery ramps. I'm not interested in newish $70k trucks as this would be overkill for my needs, more like $20k-$30k and probably 10+ years old. I'd be thankful for any suggestions of cool trucks that can tow reasonably well. Thank you

 

1st generation Raptor with the 6.2. Crew cab can tow 8000#.
