if ya want a real Truck, (fast,powerfull,and good-lookin,,Concider a Dodge Ram, Seriously lil' more $$ but will last you over twice as long ---But that's just coming from a kid who seen toyotas an Nissans have to get pulled out of oakland beach ramp by dodge rams )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

????????????????????????????????????????????????
What was that about ? Must of been a mistake

HEY its the truth!

If Ya Can't Dodge It,,, Ram It! V8 Magnum Power-
Can anyone say "vroom-vroom" ??

Jenn, i have seen Toyotas go in (under) trying 2 pull 23'ers out of the water! ,, and Dodge Rams and Chevy where there to pull the out!
(i also am fond of Chevy Silverados,,but dodge ram will always be my first and best choice!)

But as i FIRST said,, toyota is a better truck then nissan,, not only is it known better,,but it's proven they last longer, not sure how they do pulling boats (but i've seen new ones that aren't very good at it )

Bloo, Good Luck with your truck Hunt,,, hope you find what fits you and works out best for you,, if you like the toyota, or the Nissan , GO with it! Look around, Compare, and DRIVE,, if you drive the truck on the beach alot when surf casting,, go to a car lot near a beach and take it over there!
Not Sure if they make a 4x4, but that would be the best bet not only for Boat Towing,
but Light trucks have really "no-weight" in the back and tend to not do well in ice/snow (we owned a 93 Chevy S-10 pickup before the Ram,,and they shift around alot) also, if ya get your back tires spun in the sand on a beach, unless ya have 4x4 most of the time you have to wait till another truck comes around!
,But don't listen to me if ya don't want,, but i have seen alot of trucks do stuff like that...Go with a heavier truck, if ya plan to pull that 24' out of the water! unless it's a low ramp,, on oakie beach ramp is pretty steep at lowtide,, be carefull an pull S-L-O-W!

Hope that Link Helped out,, that was the Toyota vs. Nissan from CarNDriver.com.

Good Luck!
