    Yes, but it's worth it. I wouldn't worry about it renting a uhaul to use once, but if you're buying s trailer you will actually use you need them. Pulling isn't the problem with a Tacoma, it's stopping

    They're helpful, but you have to have a place to put it, luckily my dad doesn't ever really need it. I don't always need it either but it holds more than the taco and is easier to load if I need to buy building supplies or engines or furniture.

    No idea honestly, can't be too much though. Also random, but being a 5 lug does your truck have smaller brakes then a 6? Never thought of that before

    You're welcome to one that was installed in my 5-Lug. But i am pretty sure it hasn't worked since the Clinton Administration.

    Let me know if you want to install one. I can help.

    They're better than nothing. I hauled my Honda Civic home on a dolly with surge brakes and I didn't feel a thing. I was pushing 3,600 pounds. On the flip side, when I towed my toolbox home on a flatbed - I could feel everything and all that weight behind me because it was unbraked.

    I gathered a crowd around me at Home Depot when I was trying to return the trailer by backing it into the space. I gave up and just unhitched it and moved it back by hand. I didn't realize how light it was.

    I looked like this, basically.

    I didn't mean like that, reversing a trailer is cake once you understand how to chase it. I meant reversing with surge brakes, because they apply

    Oh right. Reversing a trailer is really an art, I couldn't do it if my life depended on it.
