any body have any idea what the dry weight of a 26 foot chris scorp stinger is with a pair of small blocks and alphas. just wondering if i can tow it with my explorer.

My guess is 6500 pounds.

My advice - no.
If you choose to do so anyhow, please install the biggest transmission cooler you can cram onto it and change your trans fluid change interval from 30k to 10k. A trans temp gauge would be a plus, too.

Be aware that people on this board tow TopGuns with Explorers. Maybe they can give you some pointers...

. . . course know'n this crowd . . it dosent suprise me

actually it should be minimal around town towing. i keep the boat at the marina for the most part. i keep up on the service on the trans very well. and i have a big ol' aftermarket ja'mambo RV cooler on it along with the factory cooler. i reciently put a brand new factory crate motor and trans in it to. got like 10K miles on it.

The ja'mambo model will hopefully keep you out of trouble.

Excellent choice.

(when in doubt - supersize it..)
