Hello everyone, this is my first post. So do you guys think I am being dangerous towing with the MKX, its a FWD. The boat is 3400lbs, maybe 3500lbs right at the limit of the MKX. We dont have the towing pkg, but all I can see it come with is a very slightly larger radiator and larger battery and alternator and class 1 hitch, we added a class II 3500 hitch and wiring. We have been using it to tow our jetski's (2000lbs total) with no issue. WE bought a new Crownline boat yesterday and towed it home about 40 miles. It did OK but.....
We still have 12 months left on our 24 month lease. I dont want to have to add a 5th vehicle / insurance for the next year, or get hosed trading in a lease 12 months early. But I dont want to be a danger to my wife and I or others on the road either! We also need to be sure we can get it back up a boat launch. Do you guys know if Ford or LM are having any rebates or lease pull ahead on the F150/Mark LT or Explorer/Mountaineer?
Thanks,
Chuck P
