Actually, you can pull a boat with a Corvette. I’ve seen it done, although I would never do it myself. The transmission isn’t meant for that kind of stress, and the brakes would have a very hard time. The boat I saw that was being pulled by a Corvette was a ski boat, and it fit only two people. That was just fine, though, because that’s the same amount of people that happened to be in the Corvette.

But just because you CAN doesn’t mean you SHOULD. A truck is meant for hauling and pulling, and a Corvette is not. If you buy a boat, make sure you budget for a truck. Otherwise, you’ll wreck your car, and fixing it won’t be cheap.

Malibu Boats makes a Corvette boat. It’s pretty cool looking, and they even have a Z06 model. I just thought I’d share.

Wait a minute… $30,000+ for a truck? Are they totally out of their minds? I realise that none of them will ever sell for sticker… but come on. You can have a top-of-the-line Ram or spend just 5k more and get a Corvette. Gimme a break.

Going with the flat looking front end with the two teir clear headlights, GM did it too. Ford came out with it and now it’s the new norm. Trust me i don’t like ford but when the came out with their new pickup it’s lke everyone started going with their styling quirks.

Boo-urns, why did gm and now dodge rip off fords flat looking front end. Thumbs up to nissan for being original and making a good truck, these other brands should try a little harder and maybe wouldn’t have to fire so many employees from their truck plants.

Looks like they tweaked the engine to get over Tundra’s 381. It USED to be 380.
I like this truck much more than the new F-150 or Silvy.
