    '13 20' xpress H20B. Trailer, boat motor, gas and gear totals 3000-3200lbs Tow with my 2012 DC 4x4 V6. Not the heaviest set up but I'm satisfied with the performance. It's easier to hold a 65-70mph pace than holding 60mph. MPGs aren't terrible, I'm guessing 12-15mpg depending on speed. Cruise control hunts for gears when set over 55mph which is my only complaint. Any heavier and I'd want trailer breaks for sure. the truck squats pretty far (seems like it squats more than some of you other guys towing more weight) but doesn't bottom out. my only mods are 5100s up front set at +.85" or whatever it is

    I am loving it! The shower/toilet option makes for a lot of convenience! I have only camped once hauling my 4-wheeler, but the deck is excellent for packing "stuff"! :D Bikes, coolers, storage bins, firewood, it all fits!

    Feel free to ask any specifics!:)

    That's all I got right now. I have it winterized and set up in the driveway right now. I can get you some interior pics if you'd like. It will be up a couple days yet. I'm gonna wash the exterior then put her to rest for the winter!

    Nice Baja!! I've been researching weights because I want to buy a boat and the outlaw was on my list. Good to see its possible. I'd only be towing it a few times a year to and from the marina. Also looking into a Chaparral 265SSI.

    That is F-ing sick! I've seen a few with 502's that run pretty good but damn! Haha I wish the time was right because that would be a nasty boat! Not that far away either. GLWS on that.
