Can a 2003 edge ranger 4.0 v-6 4x2 tow 17.5ft laser bass boat with 150 motor safely?

Yes, a 2003 Ford Ranger Edge with a 4.0-liter V6 engine and 4x2 drivetrain can safely tow a 17.5-foot Laser bass boat with a 150-horsepower motor. The Ranger Edge has a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds, and the boat and motor combined typically weigh around 2,000 pounds. This leaves a safety margin of 1,500 pounds, which is more than enough to account for any additional weight, such as passengers, gear, and fuel.

However, it is important to note that towing a boat can affect the handling and braking of your vehicle, so it is important to take precautions and drive safely. Make sure to load the boat evenly, distribute weight evenly throughout the vehicle, and adjust your tire pressure accordingly. You should also avoid sudden stops and turns, and be aware of the increased stopping distance when towing a trailer.
