Default Best Tow Vehicles/Chevy Pro Team

Chuck- I just got a new Suburban & it's the greatest tow vehicle I can
imagine. I cant even feel my boat, even while going uphill.

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?
