Couple of people have pointed out that it's better to have it and not need it... I've driven a full sized truck for the past 12 years and there are a few times that I wished I had 4WD but those few times are so few and far between that it is not worth the extra $$$ to me.

It's not so much the size of the boat it's the condition of the launch. I could pull and launch the boat in the original post with a corolla on a nice launch. Thats why I was saying if he's predictable about the launches he uses.

In my case, last weekend I launched a 20' cabin boat at a private launch in the basin and if I wasn't in 4wd the boat woulda prolly launched the truck. (but those cases are on occasion and not common for most)
