    • 1st or 2nd gen toyota sequoia would be my recommendation.  Those 4.7 and 5.7 motors are bulletproof and the frames are stout.  I have a 2001 with 404k miles on it and use it to pull my 22ft travel trailer all over the PNW and can use it to move my 23lsv around town or for short distances if I need to.  There’s a ton of high mileage stock mall cruising sequoias and land cruisers available that could easily get the job done for you.  I don’t think you should put a really high value on low mileage because you’re going to miss out on some great options.  Good luck!

      I towed for years with my WK Grand Cherokee with a Hemi. 

      I'm late to the party. But my 2010 WK grand with Hemi pulls JUST fine. 
      I don't tow far, to and from the launch 2-4x a year and to fuel it when needed. 
      I know the 2010 LSV is back there, but it's totally fine.

      I'm a crew chief, or whatever the top end is for the label, now.

      As proof, pertinent to an earlier question, here's one of me with a ball being rounded:

      If you do one more coat of varnish and sprinkle a little silica sand on it - might get even more grip than the vinyl ;)

      I sprayed it down with water last night, and I think it will be fine.  I wouldn't want to make it abrasive - 99% of the time people sit on that area and pivot to the swim platform - Or simply step over the stern from the rear seat .  People do however step on the sides of my boat when boarding from the dock, or maybe jumping into the water - That gelcoat is 100 X's more slick than this piece of wood.
