Todd is taking a beating on a Tacoma thread? Sounds like you guys are a little obsessed.

Though it's not a Tacoma, my Toyota 04' Tundra pulls my 23'10" Wooly around just fine!

you serious...?

302000 on the 97 T-Rex100, original brakes on the rear, 1 set of pads up front, original clutch on the 5speed, I thrash on it and can't even put a g'damn hole in the seat. I've said it before, all trucks are good when they're new..... some just stay new longer than others.... a lot longer (disregard the gauge panel hygiene), thinking of throwing a bit of dough at her and going through the timing belt, wheel bearings, u-joints...maybe even throw the third set of sparkplugs in her then seeing how she's feelin' at 400grand. Have hauled a 4wheel pop up camper for probably 30,000 of these miles with my foot mashed down on the floor for 90% of that, towed a 19' thunderjet down to the Big C with the camper on and a 300 lb fishing partner.. wink I put airbags on the rear axles just so I could load 'er down, a yard of gravel weighs a ton....no problem. So don't give it a thought...Tojo can tow.

"I put airbags on the rear axles just so I could load 'er down"

Thinking of doing this myself to put a camper on my truck. That and the Puma and I will be fishin' with squatch in no man's land. Anyone want to buy a drift boat so I can afford this?

I tow w/ my 03 taco have been for 8 years. only thing i am watching when towing is rain and stopping. as it takes a little more room to do so. but has never let me down and am hoping i hit the 300,000 mark as that's why I bought the truck. Mine gets beat pretty good. and besides a couple axle seals and oil change she has never let me down yet almost got 150k and starting to think about its first timing belt

"tow " is a very vague word. Some "tow" 1000lbs some tow 10,000lbs. There is a difference between the 2.
For almost all fishing boat towing the yota can get the job done for sure. Most heavy tows are best set for the bigger truck IMO.

Cobble Cruiser has convinced me. I know my 19' Super Vee is lighter than his Woolridge and that's the truck I've been looking at. The only thing about the Toyota is it's really hard to find one with leather interior. Seat covers would be installed.
Christ, as long as this thread has been going, I should have already bought the truck and put 20k miles on it. Thanks for the input guts. I got alot of good information.

Not sure if the first gen Tundra limited had leather but you can get it in the second gen Tundra limited.
