Message	Do you really need a 4x4 if you are just using it for towing? If you don't get a 4x4 it will be cheaper and less to maintain. Grant it, it will be crappy in snow, but if you are really just using this as to haul your Z, then it shouldn't be an issue. 2nd. Pickups can do the same job and they are much cheaper. 3rd. I don't want to turn this in to a Ford vs Chevy vs. etc debate. If I were you, I would go with a Ford truck or Explorer. They are great for hauling and last forever. 4th. Try not to buy one in SWVA. They are more expensive because those are the cars of choice. Try buying in NOVA or Richmond. You will probably get a better deal. Good luck
