I tow my 2120 with a 2002 F150 5.8L but the 2320 and its bigger trailer is a bit heavier. If you are just towing locally, five miles or so on flat terrain you'll be fine. Trekking across the state on the Interstates may be a stretch and prematurely wear out your tranny. Try a weight distribution hitch and get brakes on all four wheels if you decide to try it with that much weight. Drive slower and leave as much space in front as the traffic will allow. Offshore boating would tip the scales in favor of the 2320 in my book. I have the 2120 because of towing considerations. I tow two hours each way to the Chesapeake Bay. Oh, for the day I can afford a boatel! |
