What Was Your Oddest Towing Setup?

[PonyFiveO]

I towed my last jet boat with my 85 Thunderbird with a 5.0 out of a Mustang. It towed alright, as the power was there, but I sure did get a lot looks from people.
I think the craziest setup I have heard about was a Honda Accord towing a trailored Mustang! There was a pic floating around but unfortunately I cannot find it right now.
I guess I am asking also because I am having serious thoughts about towing my next jet boat with my 91 Mustang GT. I think it may work... then again, maybe not :)

I guess I am asking also because I am having serious thoughts about towing my next jet boat with my 91 Mustang GT.:)I think it is highly not recommended. :) I just typed "mustang towing capacity" into Google -- didn't see a '91 come up immediately, but every one I did see gave a specification of "1000 lbs. towing capacity". Good luck!

Thanks for the info RatherBeInLHC,
I will probably buy a vehicle more suitible to towing as soon as I sell the Stang, and tow with my brother's truck in the meantime.
Anyone with a crazy tow story? :)

LONG time ago I used to tow my Hobie Cat with my '77 Camaro. It was way longer and wider than the car (but trailer and boat only weighed 700 lbs.) That's the rig I learned to back a trailer with. I used to back it like a crazy person (in other words, fast) on the beach while getting ready to launch. If I saw someone doing today what I used to do I'd say, "what an A-hole!") :boxed:.

I gotta dig for the pic, but it was not really towin, I stuffed my 82 440 stand up jet ski in the back hatch of my 79 Mazda RX-7. No one could ride with, the passanger seat had to be folded forward. I am lookin for the pic.
Found it, scanned it, and here it is. LOL Makes me laugh lookin at it again. I was stupid!!! LOL

Had to have been this guy. You don't see this setup very often.

My uncle used to tow his '65 Miller Flat with his '65 Corvette. Corvette is red and the boat was white with a red stripe.

That would have been a cool setup.

It's clear that my frond drive Maxima tower has clearly lost in this contest of the ridiculous so I'm looking for a picture of a 40' Cigarette being towed by a self propelled lawn mower...

Use to tow my jetski's around behind my lowered road racer car......
But the hell load I use to carry/tow was behind an old Isuzu P'up diesel. I had made a rack to put 2 jetskis at bedrail height and store all our gear underneath them, then hooked up the 15' flatbed trailer with 3 more jestskis and two quads. Talk about doing about 5mph up the grades on I-8 back towards San Diego :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
