    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.

    here is my old 4cyl 2008 pulling my old shitty trailer and my old love machine 81

    How about loading up for a move. My newer trailer and my 2013. Couple engines in the bed, all my tools in the boxes. Some furniture. Dog house with boxes and tool box in it. The basically just clamton style loaded her up on top until there was no space.20140119_125425.jpg20140119_125204.jpg

    Awesome pic.
    But it seems that one of your trailer tires got mauled by bigfoot

    haha thanks!

    unfortunately that trailer just eats tires. I leant the trailer out twice and both times it was wrecked. Something is off and it shreds tires..

    However that trip i ran over a very large cabinet that fell off the truck in front of me. It took out my wiring and both drivers side tires. I put my spare on and drove 300 miles on 3 with the axel strapped.

    It served me well for years but after the last time someone wrecked it in a ditch, it was tweeked and basically just pulls crappy unless its around town.

    My new trailer does not get loaned out! And its the best pulling trailer I could as for.

    It is!

    It ran through the fender instead of outside and it worked great for a long time. It got smashed when I rolled it.

    Those are some big boats that are being pulled. My taco has a towing package and is rated at 6300 lb towing. Do you take that into consideration or are those boats are below 6300?

    Prop on the kicker is almost as big as the one on the V6 outboard! Do you use it on a sailboat too?

    Lol. No, it's a "kicker" motor. Serves two purposes, 1) trolling. I often spend hours and hours trolling for Salmon. I've paid for the motor about 2 times over in fuel savings, my main is an old 2-strokers and has a drinking problem.

    2) is safety. Incase the main goes down. The big propeller and gearing of that particular kicker gives it a lot of torque. It's a Yamaha T8 "hi thrust".

    Man you've got almost zero clearance under the rear of that beast. Time to flip the axles.

    Also... that thing looks damn heavy. That's gotta be over 6k when you're loaded up for camping, no?
