#14 of 19 Ski Boat by crh47 May 01, 2008 (7:48 am)
I pull a 17 foot ski boat with my 2001 Frontier and have no problems. I've pulled everything from hardwood to furniture. It never slacks up...just remember to take the auto tranny out of overdrive.
#15 of 19 towing question? by smitty26 May 20, 2008 (11:28 am)
I have a new 26ft Jayco trailer (4500lbs dry) and I am looking at the Frontier as a means to pull it. I know that the Frontier will pull 6100lbs however would this trailer with some gear in it be pushing the vehicle? Would I be better off with a full size truck?
#16 of 19 What type of Frontier? by moparbad May 20, 2008 (6:37 pm)
First, what trim and equipment of Frontier would you be using to tow?   I have a 4WD CC with automatic and have towed between 4,000 and 5,500 pounds several times on a flatbed trailer with electric brakes. No problems and I felt the power was adequate. I never went over 60 mph and I did feel that the tail was wagging the dog but not to the extent I would not tow the load again. I can't say how the Frontier will do with the 26ft Jayco as that is a large trailer in addition to a sizable weight.   Frequency of towing, distance to be towed and tongue weight are questions that are important.   Yes, you are better off with a full size truck to tow the Jayco.

Replying to: moparbad (May 20, 2008 6:37 pm) I am looking at the LE for towing.   The trailer of course would have the electric brakes but I was hoping to be able to get the Frontier over a full size just because of the gas mileage as a regular vehicle.   the tongue weight is about 540 lbs

What works best for towing...   Manual or Auto transmission?
#19 of 19 problem with 03 trailer wiring by laserdoc85 Jul 04, 2008 (3:28 am)
Just got this truck. It already had a hitch on it along with a wiring harness for the trailer. Problem is my trailers lights did not work. So I went to Autozone and bought a universal harness. Hooked it up to my wires like the last one. I get dim turn signals and dim brake lights. Even one of the trailer side lights come on when I hit the breaks. Its not the trailer because when I hook my Ford up to it it works just fine. How do I fix this one?? Have seen some posts about a wiring harness that talks about the power windows?? 126 bucks!!! But it looks like I have to run it the whole lenght of the truck!! Isn't there a easier way!!!! Thanks
