    2013 Tacoma with factory tow package. With a travel trailer that weighs more than the truck, say 6000 pounds, there is choices in hitch capacity. Most seem to say that having a hitch with 750 tongue capacity would be fine, but my question is: With the trailer heavier than the truck, should the capacity go up to 800, or would it handle better by going down to 600?

    Should it move stiffer or softer when the tail wags the dog, so to speak?
