Unfortunately, neither of these things happened in 1984 because Atari sold their home video game division to Jack Tramiel who believed that home computers would replace video game systems. No further mention of the 2600 or 7800 was made that year, and it appeared that those systems might be dead.he Atari 2600, originally called the Atari VCS, is the godfather of modern videogame systems, and helped spawn a multi-billion dollar industry.
The 2015 Acura MDX is another seldom considered tow rig from the ranks of the luxury crowd, but it can tow up to 5,000 lbs when properly equipped. The premium SUV also offers seven passenger seating across three rows, along with the ability to fold those accommodations forward and haul up to 90.9 cubic feet of gear.he 2015 Acura MDX is another seldom considered tow rig from the ranks of the luxury crowd, but it can tow up to 5,000 lbs when properly equipped.

The transmission, brakes and rear axle are also upgraded, along with the larger engine. Beyond a typical half-ton truck, a three-quarter (such as an F-250) or one-ton (F-350) can handle loads well beyond 5,000 pounds. For example, an F-250 with a 5.4-liter V8 and 3.73 gears is rated to tow 12,500 pounds.ven a compact pickup like a Ford Ranger or Chevy Colorado is going to be better than just about any car. For heavier loads (say more than 4,000 pounds) a half-ton truck like a Ford F-150 or Chevy Silverado will meet the needs of just about any of the trailer-towing basics we're discussing here.
