    I have a 2020 pre runner SR Tacoma 4 cylinder
    purchased it with no trailer hitch.
    I added a trailer hitch to it from another Tacoma. can I still tow the 6,500lb capacity? Or do I need to do anything special to the engine?

    I am planning on buying a camper trailer for the Tacoma.

    I wouldn’t want to tow 6,500 lbs with the V6 3.5.

    Anyways, the 2020 brochure says 3,500 Lbs with tow package on the I4.

    can it tow it? yes
    i pulled that weight (once)
    i dont recomment it.
    get a full size truck if your going to pull 6500 lbs

    i would love one of these on my truck

    but $3500 just to ship it kills the deal
