This. I towed multiple small boats with a 1998 Subaru Forester and the total weight ranged anywhere from 1500 to 2800 lbs (including the trailer) No issues at the ramp, but as @kodiakisland points out, backing up a steep hill can be a challenge.

My first pick is to go manual non-Squatch 4 door base, AMB, +/- floor liners. I'm going to add Katzkin with heat and might paint the rims black. That's it. For me, it's the open air experience, driving on the beach, and camping. The only thing that might push me up to the Big Bend at this...
