    Hello my fellow Taco experts! I have a question.
    I have a 2023, 3.5L full cab with a 6' bed.
    I installed a Four-Wheel project M camper top on it that weighs 377lbs. I also installed heavy duty rear (old man emu brand) 660lb leaf springs.
    I'm thinking about buying an electric golf cart with a 5x8 trailer. I'm just wondering if my truck could haul all this when fully loaded?
    I added a picture for reference
    Thanks!

    You need to be honest with yourself on what “fully loaded” means. I’ve seen minimal setups with the M and I’ve seen over payload setups with M.

    Also, you don’t state any weights for the golf cart and trailer. A flatbed trailer is going to weigh less than a fully enclosed.

    A golf cart from my grandparents filled with lead acid batteries is going to weigh way more than a brand new one with modern chemistry batteries.

    So, nobody can answer your question.

    Open your door and look at manufacture name plate for load limits towing capacity ... then use math to figure it out

    i'd slap the trailer fender, "that ain't goin nowhere", and send it. the words are what will keep it together.
