[QUOTE="FishingCop, post: 32960, member: 133"] Hi all, I have been looking for a used pick-up, a small one like the Chev S-10 or comparable in another make w/ 6cyl for better gas milage for my every day driver. There are a lot of 6 cyl 2WD out there but very few 6 cyl 4WD. I made the assumption that I needed a 4WD to launch and retrieve the boat, but maybe I really don't?? The boat weighs about 1500 lbs I think??? (16' Spectrum, see pics). What do you think? Will a 2WD do okay or should I stick with trying to find a 4WD? This vehicle is not for long trips or regular use, only an occasional fishing trip close by (under 50 miles). We have an 8 cyl 4WD vehicle for long distance towing. [/QUOTE]
