I really like the look of the Murano but was a little concerned about it's ability to tow a boat and trailer. They are not a frame based vehicle and I don't know how the CVS transmission would hold up to abuse. Brakes and other components can always be upgraded.

Of course, the fact that I have a 2002 Ford F-150 that I don't want to get rid of also complicates things. How has the Murano been for you towing wise? I will probably eventually get one but just cannot justify one right now.

About the CVT transmission, it is rated to tow 3500lbs with a full load in the Murano (meaning 5 people and luggage). So, it isn't really any problem. The vehicle actually tows great in comparison to our 1998 4Runner that the Murano replaced.

But the bottom line is... I love the Murano, for towing, and for looks. And it looks awesome towing our boat :cool:

Diamond-Back,

New tow rig look's GREAT!
I've seen your paint scheme on other post and admire your diamond bottom, the boats that is.
I'm looking at painting my 82 19' Rayson Craft.
Any suggestions or feed back on how you came up with your design would be greatly appreciated.

Nice set-up!
