Im just gonna add my .02 I just traded a 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited V8 , for my 01 X5 4.4 , the jeep had 11,000 miles on it, the X has 55,000 , every one of those 11,000 miles I dreaded, I could honestly tell you I would absolutely NEVER EVER buy another jeep and I would advise you to do the same , in fact dont buy any american made automobiles. I have two friends with large boats , one has a infinity FX45(with 20 inch wheels) and the other has a 04 4.4 X , both are very satistfied with their towing capabilities , so you have many options other than the jeep, I wish you luck with whatever choice you make

Where do you go fishing? Darien, CT or Carrabelle, FL?
Do you want to be King of the Bubbas at the boatramp? Go Jeep. If you are hauling a vintage Riva on the other hand...

I prefer Carrabelle. Spent the night there a few months back. Nice boats there, but a little quiet after the Citgo closes around 7 pm. I was sort of stranded there, and I bought tennis shoes, jeans, a couple t-shirts, toiletries, and sleeping duds for about $30 at the Dollar General. I wore the shoes out, but the jeans were sort of women's cut - tight in the waist, big in the hips, and tight in the thighs. Oh well, wadda want for $5?
Never been to CT. My wife thinks my Sea Ray is too expensive, I don't think I'll be hauling any Rivas around. We'll see how it works outs. Thanks for the input.

Did you look at the cost of leasing the BMW 4.4 or the Blazer SS?

Big in the hips, tight in the thighs. After a few days in Carrabelle, that starts looking pretty good.

It's a different place, that's for sure. Good thing I liked looking at the fishing boats. There wasn't much else to do, except hang out at the gas station. When that closed, it was boring.

I may look at the X5 4.4. I have almost no interest in a Blazer, so I won't do much research on that.
I have a 380 Sundancer. It's not much for a fishing boat, though I've figured out how to make it work for that. Mine fits the large area for sleeping, I/O description. Prior, I had a 185 runabout that I pulled with an X5 4.4 just fine.
