Need a Spot

Hi All,

Looking at buying a hard-side travel trailer, but nervous about how much the little Tacoma can handle. The manual says it can tow up to 5,000 pounds. That seems to me like it would be pushing me all over the place. Anyone had experience towing, and how much do you feel good about towing?

Thanks for all help.
