Another reason I doubt I tow much with it is the X30 is heavy and getting a good tire rated for the weight is not fun. I gues than what I will do is just get the 4.4 and get the 4.8 dressing. I also like the rectangular exhaust tips of the 4.8. How are they for getting after market exhausts? Do they dual out well or are they allready tru dualed? Every rig I own with a gas engine has headers and a true dual exhaust with high flow cats. Its amazing the difference that makes.
The exhaust is different, the muffler is mounted parallel to the rear bumper, and the quad tips come right out from it. I'm sure alot of the German tuner companies offer cat back systems with square 4.8 style tips. Good choice, and I think you'll be more than happy.
