Sounds like you're exactly the person I want to talk to. I'm looking to do this on a pretty low budget since I do have a few projects going at the same time. I'm think a coroplast aeromodded, lowered on decent used suspension, and matte black.
What model would be the best to start with? I'm assuming the v6 would be pretty heavy on the gas. I was assuming I'd be able to tow the porsche along at a pretty slow pace with an I4. I know its beyond the tow capacity rating but with a braked trailer and gingerly going along wouldn't I be okay?
As far as autocross, I'm a little confused when it comes to suspension. I have no idea how truck suspension works or what can be done with it. Can I change the leaf suspension to coilovers? If I were to lower the car for handling, aero and looks, could the truck still tow a car. I know most hate it but I would love a more "stanced" looked truck. Definitely not a slammed truck though.
I'm assuming there is a decent 5th gear swap for the transmission. I would love to change the rear end but I'm guessing that would really affect towing capacity or would that not be as big of a deal?
