Hey guys, I've seen similar questions on here regarding towing, but this one is a little more specific. I'm looking at a 2020 Blazer that has a 4500lb towing capacity, AWD, as well as a tow mode - Is this vehicle sufficient enough to properly tow a 17-18' aluminum boat like a single side console Alumacraft, Lund, Tracker, etc? Would this capacity be too taxing on the vehicle during longer trips and just kill the gas milage? Don't have too much experience when it comes to towing numbers, but I understand that a boat like that fully loaded w/ trailer would run about 2800-3000lbs. Thank you guys in advanced.
