    HI all
    I have a Tacoma 2014 4X4 access access cab auto SR5 power package pick up on order will be here Mar 5. We have two quads and a single axel trailer. We are looking at a small truck camper. Will this truck be able to handle this? The dealer sent me a note today saying that the towing cap is 3500 and the payload is 1150 pounds. I guess before I pick it up and get a camper and get into a bind, I want to know. I may have to look at a Tundra, if this is too small. Thanks for you help

    We were looking at a slide in camper. We have two Polaris 400 Sportmans, single axel trailer. From what I have learned, I am better off to look at a Baja trailer. Quads on the front, tandem axel trailer camper at the back. This year we are just going to rent, and see how that goes. Thanks

    hmmm unless they changed things majorly, towing should be 6500 with the tow package
