Whether you’re towing a relaxing load of summer recreation behind your vehicle or enough materials to construct the better portion of a large shed, the bottom line is that sometimes you need an SUV that’s capable of handling the heavy cargos. So check out our brief, albeit comprehensive, list of older model SUVs that can haul the heavies! Then head over to your favorite Winston-Salem used car dealership to check one out, of course.
2007 Chevrolet Tahoe
You’ve surely seen the 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe around, and for a good reason- the SUV is a beast. On just about every trim available, it can handle up to 8,500 pounds worth of towing. That’s roughly the weight of a full-size car or even a boat! No matter whether you’ve chosen the 4.8-liter V8 or the 5.3-liter V8 engine for the Tahoe, you’re still in good shape to do some heavy traveling. Nearly ten years later and the vehicle is still around, just ready and waiting for you to push it to its true potential.
2007 Ford Expedition
All wheel drive, a standard 5.4-liter V8 engine that outputs 300 horsepower and 365 pounds per feet of torque. See where we’re going with this? You should, because it’s towing behind it a whopping 8,500 pounds. The 2007 Ford Expedition might have been the SUV that came between the Explorer and Excursion in terms of size, but clearly size doesn’t matter in this case. In its class, a towing capacity of 8,500 pounds is downright competitive on top of being impressive!
2007 Nissan Armada
The 2007 Nissan Armada is the closest, most legal way you’re going to get to drive a tank on the streets… at least from a used car dealership in Winston-Salem. The Armada packs a standard 5.6-liter V8 engine that has 320 horsepower just ready and raring to go. Couple that with 385 pounds per feet of torque and you’re ready to pull up to 9,000 pounds! Not that you could tow a 62-metric ton tank in the 2007 Nissan Armada, but your options outside that are still pretty limitless.
These are just the tip of the iceberg as far as what we’ve got in store. Contact us for more information!
