    On second thought - maybe it is a Trail Cruiser. I didn't realize mine also has the feather on the front decal until I went back and checked the pics (camper is in storage). Mine is a 21RBH (about 20' from the rear bumper to the front of the gas tanks). Mine pulls very well - you know it's back there on a steep grade and when you stop for gas. I think it's "just right" for my Tacoma.
    Here's a couple pics of mine when I picked it up (used).

    I towed a 20 ft open car hauler last week with furniture on it, forgot to snap a pic, but towed with only a little sag. It's an all steel trailer with two axles, but the truck did great.

    What do you think the weight of the trailer/4runner is? I'm looking to tow my toy with my Tacoma and just want to see what the weight is. Thanks!

    I need to weigh it, but I'm guessing around 5500 lbs. The 4runner's tank was empty and thats all I was hauling. It did well even through the asheville mountains but I will mostly be towing it on flat terrain

    Thanks!

    Thanks. I plan to do crossover steering, replace the cheap lift with a flexier setup, new armor, gears and lockers, eventually dual cases. I'm going to keep the body mostly original, don't want to cut it up.

    Posted this in another thread, but I had to tow this this weekend. Fully loaded with 2 ATVs, water, tools and wood, this steel trailer weighed around 4000-43000lbs. No weight distributing hitch (which would have been nice). The trailer was initially going to be towed by a full size Class A motorhome so it was loaded with most of the weight up front, hence the little bit of sag.

    She did handle well, much better than expected.

    A friend ask me if I can move his trailer a couple of blocks. I won't do it very often or regularly :p. Any way was before to have the TSB done for the rear suspension.
