    Default What boat related gifts did Santa bring you?

    We have been talking about getting a safer tow vehicle. Although the market is crazy I found this 2017 Ram 2500 for 53k with only 4.5k miles - not a typo, still smells new! Got rid of the F150 and upgraded to the ¾ ton without giving it much thought - so that was our Christmas present!!! Got a gasser since I work from home and wouldn’t be driving much and only tow the boat for the most part.

    The difference between a ½ and a ¾ ton is unreal. Can’t even feel the boat back there. Feel safe on the highway finally as well.

    Plus its the megacab in the Laramie trim - the can is enormous.

    Wife has a Soulcraft on order. Otherwise we didn’t do presents this year because of this

    I’m super stoked about this setup!

    Santa wife got me a carbon fair core skimmer. Can’t wait to see how that ladder works out, we’ve been looking all around for ideas on a ladder.

    Nice setup. Congratulations. I’m on Team Gas as well. Can’t justify the extra expense of a diesel for only occasional towing. Sure, a diesel might hold an extra gear up a hill and burn less fuel when towing but what about the other 99% of the time if it’s used as a daily driver. Just one guy’s opinion.

    Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year to the forum family.

    Exactly my thought process when shopping. Was sold on diesel for the boat. But after tons of research gas just made more sense.

    Thanks everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas…and happy new year soon!

    Picked up the boat from the dealer on the 22nd and bought myself 100lbs of lead for Christmas! I got rid of my 1500 Denali a while back for lack of towing power and got a 07 duramax and it’s sole purpose in life is pulling the boat. So picked up a new daily (okay weekend car)
