Can it tow?
If I believe the specs, the LR3 is an awesome tower. Can I tow a 6000 lb boat/trailer without any problems? I live in UT and would have to make it up a couple of pretty good climbs to get to the resevoir.

Land Rover Discovery 3 scoops category win at Towcar Awards 2007
The Land Rover Discovery 3, one of the most awarded 4x4s ever, scooped yet another accolade for best ‘Towcar over 1900kgs’ at last night’s inaugural Practical Caravan, What Car? and the Camping & Caravanning Club Towcar awards 2007.
Judges hailed the Discovery 3’s exceptional capability, saying: "The Discovery 3 will happily tow at 60mph all day, and smoothes away bumps that are felt with a thump in many other 4x4s. Nothing else in this class is as accomplished an all-rounder; it’s great to drive solo, tows with gusto and is supremely practical."
Land Rover’s Discovery 3 is a technology-packed, premium 4x4 designed to deliver outstanding performance both on the road and off-road. It offers exceptional space, comfort and flexibility, for up to seven adults and it is able to tow up to 3.5 tonnes – enhancing its ‘three cars in one’ status.
Land Rover’s UK managing director John Edwards added: "We are really delighted to win this award for Discovery 3 and for it to be recognised for its towing capacity. This award is testament to the fact that it is a supremely able vehicle and capable of tackling anything that a customer throws at it."[/align]

RE: Can it tow?
it's incredible! I've done about 3000km with my boat towed behind. Stopped at a weigh scale and i came in at 6350kilograms about14000lbs- truck /trailer/boat and it is smooth, powerfull. great in city/hignway and country back roads. 6 speed manual shift on the highway and automatic whenmaneuvering makes life easy. Air ride suspension is amazing!. I'd say this is the best tow rig in its class!
