Want to get a bigger bay boat, which my 4runner wont be able to pull. So I have to get a bigger vehicle and I'm considering Yukon Denali, Land Cruiser, and F150. I like the looks of the F150 Raptors the most.

What's everyone's thoughts?

That if you're considering a Raptor and a Land Cruiser and prefer the Raptor, we can't help you

The Raptor doesn't have as much towing capacity as you'd think. I'd go with the regular F-150.

Too bad you made this thread after lunch on a Friday, this should be fun.

Raptor is way overkill for what you need, but I love the look of them as well.

If all things are equal, I'd probably buy the Yukon Denali though.

yeah I know 13,000 is max for a regular 3.5 ecoboost, but 8000 on the rapton is enough and I like the front end of the raptor much more.

I pull my 22' bay boat with a FoRunna. I went through the same thing though--didn't think it would be able to pull it but it is just fine.

You can convince yourself you "need" something, but most of the time what you have is actually fine but you just "want" something.

24'+ though you'll need a onefiddy

I think they're more focused on performance and not towing.

my 21' would pull fine but i'm upgrading to a 24' and I doubt the runner will pull it well

of the F150s

Others have too much chrome. ugly grills. etc.

Whether I need a truck vs an SUV is up for debate.

Land Cruiser has my vote. I love mine and also have a Lexus LX570 which is basically a LC with a Lexus logo. Best vehicles I’ve ever owned.
