Is your FG auto or manual?Only reason I ask is that my father in law has given me a boat similar size and I am debating weather to put a towball on my FG ute or get a cheap 4wd to tow it.What did I do to my car today( or over the last 2 weeks)?Painted and fitted a XR8 bonnetFitted some 6.5" Hertz speakers to front doors and covered the door in DynamatDiscovered rear speakers have been swapped for some JL Audio 2ways. Pulled them out and put a heap of Dynamat behind there.Fitted a slim line 12" Kicker sub and ampChucked on a SS Inductions BigMouth CAI.Painted the middle bottom section of the front bar black.Next up is paint the wheels black, apart from the sh*t offset on the FG ute I really like the look of the stock Snowflake rims. Still undecided on lowering or not, I hate seeing the big gap in the wheel guards but on the other hand I bought the ute to get dirtbike about and low utes on bumpy gravel roads suck.Awesome car for towing, mine is auto I use manual mode when towing just so the auto doesn't up shift to early I had 6 adults (tight squeeze in the rear) in the car and the boat behind and one of my mates says he couldn't even tell the boat was behind us If you just drive sensibly the fuel economy barely changes Falcons love towing, even more when they are turbo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80918-what-did-you-do-to-your-car-today/page/686/#findComment-1575741 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad got stuck wheelspinning in his work car with his old boat which was 18ft runabout and had to get a stranger with a land cruiser to pull the boat out for us.. he went and bought a pajero after that Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80918-what-did-you-do-to-your-car-today/page/686/#findComment-1575745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
