    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.

    Honestly, never pushed it, too cheap to abuse my tires intentionally. I also have a manual trans, so I also try to baby my clutch. That being said, I'll have to give it a try. I would assume so, as my 09 four cylinder did, but with all the traction control shit, who knows.

    The 06 trd or I had with mt was not as strong as this 5 speed auto. The clutch would slip taking off.

    And.

    Flat surfaces.

    Towing speed is recommend at MAX 60 mph in the manual.
    Your not going to be towing like a BroComa Diesel but you'll get there. Mine camper is about 4000lb and she isn't winning any races but that's not what towing is about.

    Good luck

    Seems to me there was an awful lot of encouragement to make and post this video... it would be really great if I got as many likes for doing what I said I would do. :humble:
