Is this Yoda? Why so much horsepower when you're going to be on ice? Horepower is a great thing...when you have traction.

cause it will be used to pull a 4000 pound ice house out on the ice and to pull my walleye boat and right now when i pull my small 14.5 crestliner .. about 1500 pounds .. i have a problem with it not being to making it up hills without haveing to down shift to 4th or sometimes third .. and in minnesota and wi we don't have mountains just river bluffs.. and the resion for the hp.. why not? I could go with a 5.3 vortex and have 300 hp but why when for another $500 i can buy a used lq9 with trans ready to transplant.

so the idea is that it is too much for my jeep and if i wanted to go that way find a wrangler and start with that as my project. as you guys feel the unibody would not hold up to the stress of what i want to do with it.
