    If the Springs is in the mix, I've gone to Ascent Cycles (Powers @ Dublin, so sort of north side) a few times, good group of people there.

    I've got way too much *** going on... quick sanity check..

    Could I tow a ~4300 pound RAV4 prime on a Uhaul/car trailer with my 2015 V6 supercharged Tacoma with big brake kit? I can install a brake controller in less than an hour, so we'll assume I have one of those.

    I may need to do the insurance companies work of shuttling it around to Boulder/Centennial and such for estimates because the world is f'd and there is no labor or parts.

    They won’t care if it’s supercharged or not. The trucks towing capabilities is 6500lbs from Toyota.

    Criterium is one of the better shops down in Springs. Near North Nevada and I25. They work close with SRAM and have some pretty capable mechanics over there

    Thanks for the sanity check… I forgot UHaul lets you put in your vehicle and gives you the NOPE for selection… I do remember looking years ago with my 1st gen trying to find weights on their trailers and don’t remember being able to find that info.

    I gave up and replaced the RAV4 Prime with a full electric replacement that has more range (up to 82 miles in eco mode). 419 lbs capacity.

    I did tow my wifes 2015 Rav4 gasser with my tacoma from colorado to washington. Now, i used my GX as the tow vehicle on the website to get the trailer since the GX has a slightly higher towing capacity. I towed with the Tacoma cuz my wife cant drive stick and she drove the GX up to washington when we moved. it worked out fine. I suspect your prime weighs a little more than the reg and older rav4 does.
