    Never enough
    I have towed a pop up camper about 2,000 miles so far. It's definitely low profile but probably weighs more than what you're thinking of doing. The camper definitely makes a dent in the mpg.

    He clearly has no regard for gas mileage though with 3 RTT's and his truck is far from stock build/mpg to begin with. :D

    True, but he did haul that trailer around quite often before he did the solid axle swap.

    Gotcha.. that was before my time I think. Havent ever been thrilled about a trailer, but if it would allow the truck to be a bit less packed, and serve as a sleeping area, it may be possible!

    I haven't had my 'Ruger' brand trailer very long and only one loaded trip to Moab. I don't remember the numbers exactly but I think I ended up somewhere around 16mpg.

    I've installed my ARB compressor, ran the wires through the firewall and connected the switches, but I'm not confident in splicing the wires. Are there some good Tacoma related articles or videos for tapping into power or connecting the ARB wiring?
