I currently own a 2WD Nissan Frontier 2.4 liter with a towing capacity of 3000 lbs. I am looking to tow a boat/trailer with an approximate package weight is 2800lbs.  Anyone with similar setup? What has been your experience with towing, especially at the ramp?

Thanks in advance

Both times I've towed, I've towed well over the 3000 lbs mark.  First time was a 6x12 trailer filled, along with my bed.  The second was my friend's 84 RX-7.

It could be interesting trying to get the trailer out of the water.  I made it up a very steep onramp when I was towing that 6x12. 

BTW... if you plan to tow that boat very often, I would look into some helper springs.  It will help keep the rear end from sinking, there by helping your driveablitlty.
