The main criteria is something that Mrs.E will feel comfortable driving (meaning smaller) yet still has the tow capacity to handle the little camper she bought last summer. Ideal would be a tow capacity of 5K to 6K lbs to tow the little 4K lb. camper. I happened to be looking at the Tacoma and recalled you posting that yours is rated to tow 6,400 lbs. You also have said you have the four cylinder, 4x4 with a manual transmission. You might want to verify your tow rating for that configuration. According to Toyota, it is only rated to tow 3,500 lbs. (2016 model specs). That ought to be able to haul a 20 ft Pahkah, his last known, (thought to be real), boat. And once again, you display your ignorance. The boat with engine and gear and fuel was about 3400 pounds, and the trailer added substantially to that, putting the weight of the full rig way over 3,500 pounds. Stick to what you know, whatever that might be. You agree with Luddite's findings then? You overstated your capacity by a whopping 3000 pounds. Almost twice the real capacity. I'm wondering if you know anything that really matters. Your peabrain is farting -- Posted with my iPhone 7+. |
