Thanks for the info. I was wonder what size trailer you needed. I was surprised that the Tacoma is only rated by Toyota for 3500 lbs. It seems like a larger truck that the old Colorado. The new diesel Colorado/Canyon series is rated for like 7000 but they only come in the extended cab Z71 or higher spec and who in their right mind is going to pay $37,000 for a compact pickup? Criminy!!!!! As my grandfather used to say, stuff has gone up since the war.
