I know the 150 SS says 1200 pounds weight with motor and fuel, but how much does the trailer add to the towing weight. Will a 1500 pound towing capacity vehicle not be enough to pull a 150 SS or 150 Montauk?


A highway-worthy trailer for that boat will likely weigh 300-400 lbs. You will be shaving it very close. And that 1500 lbs tow capacity likely needs to be reduced by the weight of cargo and passengers in the vehicle (beyond the driver.) Consult your manual carefully.

Again, your options are VERY limited by the small vehicles you own.
