What have you hauled lately

^ do you think I would need a weight distributing hitch?

 

No not if you balance your load properly. I've had the trailer for 5 years and 2 Tacomas and I've never had an issue with the trailer trying to walk around or push me around, save for one when the strap on the mower broke and it rolled to the back... wheeeeee!

 

that is awesome!

 

More oak wood.

 

7x16 H&H Cargo trailer for work. I just wanted to make sure she could handle it even though it won't be too often.

 

I don't do a bunch of heavy hauling.

I bought my truck for a daily driver and playtime.

Here it is taking my dirtbike up to the forest for a little session.









Not a big deal for the truck, but hey, it's what I do...

 

Nice DRZ @Fast Frank! I have one too. I bet the Taco didn't even know it was there.

 

You guessed it. More oak wood. But guess who got bed bars this week!! Heavy Metal Off Road custom build. Dude does good work.

 

2 DRZ's 2XT's and too much other crap I didn't use for a 5 day trip to Death Valley with my 3 boys

 

Towed aliner approx 1250 lbs and hauled inflatable boat with 5hp motor and all fishing gear approx 200 lbs in the bed. Got about 18 mpg on a couple of different trips through southern Nevada and Utah.

 

II loads of trash to the dump. 1 load to Goodwill. Spent two weekends cleaning out a horder's home and he still has lots of crap. Sorry, no pictures.

 

I hauled my mama over to Lubbock for her doctor appointment. I wanted to take a pic but she said she brought me into this world and if I took a picture she would take me out. Soooo, no pics.

 

1400lbs of dumbbells. Handled it fine

 

Didn't get any pics, but a couple weeks ago I had a kayak in the back, pulling a small bass boat with a bike stowed in it. Fuel economy sucked, but it worked.

 

Forgot I had a pic of a recent camping trip.

 

Hauled my old wheels and tires home to be sold at a later date.

 

I've been hauling the boat around. I got it all weighed at the cat scales and will be below all the limits by a hair, but with the family in the Truck we will be right at the 5,600 pound gvwr for the truck itself. The truck without the boat and just me in it is 4,880. Then the boat adds a 520 tongue weigh so total truck weight with me in it is 5,160 (there must be some shiftage). Total gross with me in the Truck is 9,220 so I have a little wiggle room with gcvwr. Trailer has surge brakes on both axles that are amazingly helpful. I don't care for that little slam when starting back out from a stop and the linkage in the tongue stretches back out, but whatever. I also have a set of air ride air bags gonna be here tomorrow for the truck to help with the squat....

 

Recently took a 1800 mile round trip from NM to Cali. No issues what so ever.

 

Can you elaborate on speed, rpm, gear, etc?
