The 2014 Subaru Outback has a tow capacity of 2700 pounds when equipped with the tow package and V6.
Your boat is 1425pounds, the motor you can figure approx. 400 pounds, the trailer I believe is 600-800pounds. Add gear and fuel......No wonder you are hearing your car labor when starting and going up hills.
If you hear your car labor when going up hills etc....I'd be careful.
That Suburu is a real nice vehicle. You don't want to have to buy a new motor.
Thanks for the info but when I say "Labor" the vehicle never goes over 3,000 rpms. I don't think it can be that horrible if it is staying in the 2,000rpm range. I am not saying I am an expert by any means but I am pretty positive you can tell when your car likes or dislikes something you are doing to it.
I will take my chances with confidence =]. |
