    IDK I guess if you can get it mounted to the frame you'd be good to go.

    I'm surprised nobody has told the OP to RTFM. It says right in the manual that a tacoma is not suited for 5th wheel type trailers.

    JB weld is awesome! I use that stuff when I run out of my .035 flux core wire in the hot welder. So then I just use my cold welder also known as JB weld.

    I will stand to say that the origional Vdub Beetle was the best car ever made. They are so easy to work on and drive. My neighbor has been rebuilding them for 20+ years, since he retired from the Navy which he worked as a baker, I've been helping him for the most part of my life. I could rebuild a VW motor in my sleep. :cool:
    IIRC all Tacoma's are only rated a 6,000 pounds towing capacity.

    Ya, but then only one hooker each. Can a vespa pull a fifth wheel? I can JB weld the hitch to the handle bars.
