I am trading in my Xterre for a 08 Frontier Auto/6 cly/ 4X4.

The tow rating states 6100lbs. is this true?

I plan to tow 2 snowmobiles in a enclosed tralier.

Trailer would be 17ft at 4500lbs and both snowmobiles would equal 1000lbs.

Will I have problems? Want to know before I sign my name on dotted line.

not to sound or look silly, but what does the gear ratio do?

"what gear you have thats on the driver side door mine was a CA number your dealerships shop man can tell u what rear u have do`nt liseten to the salesmen he will tell u what ener u want to hear 2.93,3.15.3.73 are some of the ratios my truck has the 2.93 gear"

I will check with service desk.

Would tow snowmobiles dependent on snow storms at least 6 times a season. Other wise it would be 3 Atvs and that could be a 1 -2 dozen times. Surprisingly I would use my Frontier as a truck, it will be off road, see mud, coal dirt,etc.

Did you tow in mountain regions? I live in Northeast Pa so I am concerned with the inclines

I had a 88 or 89 Nissan pickup (dual 4 cyl) that I LOVED! The only truck that would beat me on dirt piles was a TOY.

any aftermarket items i should look into getting to aid with towing?
