    Pulled this around the North Bay this weekend back and forth from Novato to Sonoma. 3 trips with a 5x8 Dump Trailer loaded with about 4K lbs of yard debris and broken concrete. Good stuff. Towed fine after I added Firestone Ride Rite airbags this last weekend.

    Finally uploaded a picture of my truck and boat. Boat weighs about 4700 lbs loaded and the tacoma does ok with it. The trailer does have brakes and they really help. I won't win any races pulling it but it is fine for us. I did add timbrens to the rear and that helped.

    4620 to be exact with the trailer and a full tank of gas (40gal) and nothing else in the boat. I was surprised too when I weighed it.

    I have been anticipating (dreading?) this for a while now. Today was the big day, I towed the boat from Fort Worth to Hot Springs, a little over 350 miles. Toyota got the gearing pretty much right on this one, I might go a little lower on the rear gear, but not much.

    I towed in 3rd gear (4spd auto) at 65-67 mph.

    No problems on any hills on the interstate.

    I was able to run in cruise control, but I would shut it off on long uphill stretches so it wouldn't downshift to 2nd.

    I averaged 16.7 mpg for the trip.

    Once I got off the interstate in Arkansas, I had some steeper hills to contend with. No problem, I was going slower now, max of 60 mph and other than being slow to accelerate, no problems at all.

    All my worries about the 4 cylinder Taco were over nothing, it did great.
