thinking about buying this travel trailer?

Hey guys I've been looking around this forum for a while now but finally decided to join. I bought my 2014 double cab off road 4x4 last February and been loving in for the last year but the wife and I have started looking at travel trailers and I was going to see if you guys think one of these trailers would be doable http://www.pacificcoachworks.com/products/mighty-lite-m20rls http://www.pacificcoachworks.com/products/mighty-lite-m18rbs/

 

I like the shitter at the rear.

 

Neither one if you don't have the factory towing package. With the factory towing, make sure it has trailer brakes. It will still be a hand full. Rear shitter FTW!
Welcome to TW!

 

I don't see trailer brakes listed on the list of trailer features. Considering some of the stuff they're listing - that's noticable by its absence. Make sure it has brakes!

Aside from that - err on the side of the smallest trailer that meets your needs. Everyone always overloads their trailers.

 

My truck does have the factory tow package and both trailers do have brakes in california anything over 2000 has to have brakes installed. But as far as the weights and length. It seams smaller than what I've seen guys towing on here.

 

Either should be fine. Get a Equalizer hitch or similar. Pull it in 4th (not Drive/5th). I like the Prodigy 3 brake controller. It's a little more but worth it. There's a thread w/ replacement mirrors for towing somewhere her on this forum. Those might be helpful as well.

 

ProEFX heated towing mirrors FTW

 

Those are pretty sweet mirrors I will have to find the thread on those. So you are thinking these trailers will be safe to tow with not to much trouble for the truck

 

Those are the ones.

Should be fine. They are 3000 and 3300 unloaded w/ a max of 5500 loaded. Your Tacoma should be rated right at 6400. 6400 - 20% = 5120. Close enough for me. Don't overload it. Little to no water unless you really need to take it. That'll save 250+ lbs. right off. It's not going to pull like a diesel but it should be capable and safe. It's not a race when pulling an RV. If you decide you need a bigger truck the Tacoma demands top dollar on the open market. Could be worse.

 

Are they one axle or two? Say's "3500 lb. axle" but gross weight up to 5500?

 

Thanks guys

Yes they are both dual axles.
