No, you already have exceeded the max towing capacity by the amount of luggage to be loaded and the boat&trailer.

Find another way to tow the boat to the location you need to, or risk paying lots of money to get your transmission rebuilt or replaced.

It will likely make the trip but will do a lot of unnecessary damage to your car’s motor. Try to avoid it.

Nope, that car would be very overloaded. You would not only be endangering you’re car mechanically, but you will most likely get pulled over for it and made to have someone with a truck pick up your boat and trailer or risk have it impounded.

It may pull it, but you will be looking for a car dealership when you get San Fran. Lots of luck.

The car has a tow rating of 2000 lbs.

What you describe would be dangerous and wreck your car’s drive train.

1991 Taurus? Its probably on its last leg anyhow.
