Make sure your hubs are unlocked. With my old 89 4.9L 5spd I would lose 5mpg if I left the hubs locked in. Hesitation could be that it needs a tune up or may be the throttle position sensor.

As far as 6 cyl go. The 4.9L will out pull any 302 Ford and many Chevy 350 Ci. For mid size trucks and SUV you have the ford 3.0 and 4.0 in the Ranger and Explorer, the 4.0 HO strait 6 in the Jeeps. The 2.8 and the 4.3 in the Chevy/ GMC. The 3.9 in the Dodge. 3.4 DOHC 24V in the Toyota. Nissan also has them not sure of the size.

If I had to choose one I would go with either the Jeep or the Toyota.

The only engine that is classified as high torque is the Jeep 4.0L HO. I was simply listing the trucks and suv's that are available with 6 cyl. engines. But for all out torque you can't beet any strait 6. Look back at the dodge slant 6. You would be hard pressed to find another engine with that kind of pulling power back in those years.

The 4L ford would have to have had a 5speed trans other wise? The auto trans. have a hard time making it past 60,000mi in normal driving let alone pulling a boat. Chevy is the same way with the newer 4L60E trans behind the 4.3L.

I have yet to see a Ford or Chevy of any kind out live a Toyota.
