Hey all,
I might be picking me up a project; a 2000 Ford Explorer for a rediculously cheap price. It has an issue or two. The main one which makes it non drivable is the fact that the coolant is dumping into the oil.
So, I want to know if my 05 Explorer V6 could handle towing a 2000 Explorer 4wd V6.
My truck is a V6 with the Class III hitch; 3.55 differential.
I'd at least be doing 125 miles with the explorer on there. I'd predict 10-25 miles (at most) would be some uphill. Avg speed would be anywhere from 40-60 miles per hour.
Good Idea or no?
and Yes I would keep the truck out of overdrive.
