Now Now, Enough with the name calling. Why not tow with our types of cars? I can tell you they definetly do not lack the power 
. I know of somebody on this board that towed a trailor from Ohio to here in his 02 Trans am Now he is running low 11's. Nothing wrong with using your car a little bit

I've seen a Corvette convertible down in Everett launching a boat ...
He said it's the best vehicle he's had to pull a trailer with its low center of gravity and of course power.
I totally agree it looks wrong ... but really is functional that way. I just wouldn't want all the extra weight and of course a hitch coming out the rear when I wasn't towing something.

Towing things just gives these cars the Fugly Factor...

Don't you actually have to put the car into the water to launch the boat? That picture just makes me cringe...

I think the driver took this ad on the back of the trailer too seriously:
Then again, a bet with the driver even without the trailer on who would win a road race would be a sucker bet

Actually, I don't usually back the trailer in much farther than that...I figure if I can keep the bearings out of the water, if a seal does happen to leak, there's that much less chance of water getting in. That boat will float in a puddle, doesn't draft much water. The way I figure it tho, even with the boat behind me, there still aren't many people who can take me...
