I see lots of pictures of SCABS towing big loads. I'm planning on getting a raptor and using it sometimes to tow my jeep/trailer (around 7000lbs total). I really like the look of the SCAB's better, but was going to go for a SCREW for the towing....is there really much of a difference in towing between the two? or would the SCAB be fine?

I can't match the weight you guys are towing, but I drag lots of fun behind mine.

This thread caught my eye because I have to tow a '74 Chevy Scottsdale about 130 miles next week. From what I've read, this should be a snap weight-wise.
