    Thanks man, I had the interior done at a local shop here in Vancouver and they ordered the leather from Pecca in California. As for the trailer, yes, it did have electric brakes.

    I didn't know about the trailer brakes because some do and some don't, thats why I asked. I do know there is no way you pull a double axle trailer with a 2.7l, unless it was for some idiotic reason.

    I tow my 20 ft. Hewes Light Tackle with my 97 Tacoma 4wd/3.4/4wd. Doesn't tow it like my Tundra did, but she does good. I keep my boat is a spot at the marina, so the tow is about 20 yards haha.

    Unfortunately, I do not have a pic of the pair. But, next time I fish, I will post a pic.
    Btw, my Tundra got T boned about a week ago, just picked this Tacoma up. Very stoked to be the second owner. Can't wait for my parts to start coming in!

    there is a good one of it.
    need to decide if i should just get a longer drop hitch so it rides more level, or put the springs on top of the axle.
    or just sell the trailer and start over with a new 12' or 14' one.

    i would not drop it more than 2” you want the tung lever or a little higher.(it’s best if it’s a little higher. you don’t want it lower when it’s loaded. also may put the mower another 6” to a foot or so forward. the more tung weight the better it will pull.


    when we tow the rhino(pic to the left in my avi) we put it as far forward as it will go on the trailer even when it’s the only thing on it.

    I don't have a picture of it connected to the truck as I live in canada and all it does is snow from October to April here. And yes I know its big however my taco has 0 issues towing or stopping with it.

    i recently bought a 6x12 enclosed trailer, moving from ky to ak in June. I have a 2008 2wd trd sr5 pre runner. Any mods i should make for the distance i am about to travel? I transport a 525 quad and 650 dual sport mainly and tools. For the journey, i will transport the 650 and clothes mostly, 3200 pounds roughly.

    idk what all. but make sure you pack tight and tie everything down. even if you think it wont move because other stuff is next to it. tie the shit down. i have seen stuff move anyways. and make sure you load it right, not to much weight in the back.

    Hopefully you have the tow package...other than that. Just take your time and hopefully you have a good iPod.

    Nice camper! What are the numbers? Weight Length etc: I was thinking of getting a 25 foot with a dry weight of 4,500 but many said way to heavy for the TACO! My original was a 29 foot, 4,800 dry weight.

    only reason some are probably saying that is to heavy(one you are looking at) is once you add all the food and drinks and all the other stuff you would want when camping it will be really close to the max towing.

    (say outdoor chairs, food drinks, towels, clothes, maybe board games, maybe outdoor rug, dishes,) may not seam like it will add up to 2k pounds but it will add up fast and before you know it.

    oh and water fresh and gray water tanks.
