a chevy 4500 will pull ur load with ease.. i kno a guy who has one and pulled a 38thousand lb boat and he didnt even kno it

Umm 38,000 pound boat huh? Umm I am sure he knew it was back there since the nose of his truck would be straight up in the air. Secondly a boat that size he would have to oversized load tags and permits to move it down street. And there is NO WAY He pulled a 38k boat with a 4500. Go flame another board

I somewhat agree. Although he may have done it but its highly over the limits. And good luck stopping all that weight.

Plus --- I'm no boat expert so correct me if I'm wrong but any boat at 38k lbs empty is probably TOO big to travel over the road even with oversize permits. Thing must be HUGE!!!! Probably just easier to launch and skipper it up or down the coast to where you need it. Or is this just a little lake boat?

Lets estimate GCVW ... 38k boat + 11k truck + 9k trailer = 58k ----- WOW! No one in their right mind would take this chance with a 4500 anything!

I pulled a 36,000 lb trailer with a 3/4 ton dodge for 3500 miles. I now have a 3500 dually and now want a 45 or 5500. A boat that big, i would like to see pictures on that. Not saying he cant pull the weight, just saying that it is a very big size. Cant imagine all the permits.
