Towing cap limited

Thinking about getting a Tacoma before the end of the year. I like many details of Toyota trucks, just not sure if I want to go to a truck as small as the Taco. The lack of towing capacity seems to be my biggest deterrent. 6,400 is easily reached. I like checking out the forums to see what guys are saying about their trucks and learning what to do and what not to do once the upgrade process begins.

If you are doing hard core towing, the Tacoma may not be a fit for you. You may need to get the leaf pack TSB done to even accomodate the 6400.

I wouldn't say hardcore towing. Perhaps an occasional 1,000 mile trip with two motorcycles in an enclosed 16 foot trailer (Estimated weight of 4,500#). I just hate the idea of needing to pull more and not having the ability. I like the smaller size and better economy of the Taco, but life may necessitate a bigger truck. I've been all through the threads and read almost every topic about towing. I know enough not to overload a truck and get in a dangerous situation.

Thanks!

 

If the towing works then great!!! ... Im on my third Tacoma... 2003 DC TRD, 2007 DC Off Road, and now 2011 DC Sport that I just got over a month ago. I was so afraid of not liking the 12's I ran out and sucked up one of the last 11's and got a great deal on it.

They gave me 23k for a trade on my 2007 with 52k on the clock which i thought was fantastic. And im not a fan of the 12's fron end, if its going to be the one going around on here. Thats why I like these trucks, they hold there value so much its crazy....
