I have the V6. It pulls it fine, long hills are not so fun but it gets it done. I tow in 4th gear and will sometimes manually shift down to 3rd on hills. I haven't yet but am going to install an aux cooler for the transmission. Sorry, for the late reply.

I simply can't imagine pulling a 6000lb 30ft travel trailer with a 4Runner. Even a V8 version!

Maybe if you live in flatlands, and don't have to chug up and down mountains like we do in California. Or visit Colorado mountains...

I've towed a 16footer with a 350ci V8 in a Suburban, and that was bad enough. Although that was a '77 suburban which probably had less HP and torque than a V6 4R, the longer wheelbase heavier tow vehicle helps a lot with handling.

My Rig

"This is what I did on My 2020 Summer Staycation Sponsored By Corona". This was built to take my boat around the country to sail. I am now researching the best way to charge the LiFe battery from the T4R. I have a DC power Alternator I will be installing in the next week. Thinking of using a Blue Sea solenoid and Bussman Breaker to and Anderson Connector at the rear, Isolating the Battery with a Victron Orion Smart.
