I was just sitting here trying to figure out why Chevy would drop their Pro
Team. When I thought about it they probably get more mileage out of
Sponsoring the tour events that they do a Pro team, I don't personally
recall to many occasions where I actually saw a Chevy Pro Team member doing
any ads in a magazine either. I do remember Bill Dance using them in his
programs.
I wonder if they will even continue to sponsor the Tour events anymore?

Perhaps this will open the door to other Truck makers to get into the
fishing scene a little heavier. Don't get me wrong one of my best tow
vehicles was a 1999 4x4 Chevy Tahoe. That thing pulled a boat like nobodies
business for the first 2 years I had it. I have since switched over to Ford
150's since a Chevy dealers auto mechanic told me the brake system wasn't
good enough to pull a boat. I laughed at first, then I noticed that he was
serious. We went round and round for a few days about it, I mean 3 sets of
warped rotors in under 6000 miles, that is problem, one towing a boat
shouldn't cause. They blamed it on the boat so I would have to pay for it.
So I showed them, I told them to terminate my lease. Drove over bought an
F-150 and offered theChevy Dealers manager a tour of my Ford when I went
over to sign the papers. They did try to get me to pay for the brake system
repair, I said tried

The Tahoe did a great job until the Brake System failed.

My monies on Ford right now, mine does a super job. With the new model out
they should tow even better now.

I would love to see Ford get more involved in the Tour scene, honestly I
dont know if Ford even has a pro team, I don't recall ever seeing
information about any. Dodge either for that matter. Anyone know if Ford or
Dodge does? and what is your take on Chevy dropping their team?

Hi Chuck,

Right now, I have 56,000 miles on a Chevy truck I bought just over two years ago. Way more than
half of the miles have been pulling bassboats and I'm on my original brakes.

As far as my take on Chevy dropping their team? I really don't have an opinion one way or the
other.
