    v6 vs v8 for Towing?

    04 with the 4 speed will tow 5000 pounds as from the manufacture specs. I've towed around 4000 pounds with trailer brakes and it performed well. I have a 07 with the 5 speed. Add a tranny cooler, airbags and replace your shocks (if they haven't been replaced recently). I think it'll be fine...

    Did this truck have a 4.7

    In the article it states timing belt. 2007 the 4.7 had a timing belt while the 5.7 had a chain. It wasn't until later I think 2011? Or around there that Toyota introduced the 4.6, which among other changes. Had a timing chain Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Pros and Cons to Ipad in Dash

    While the iPad has never fallen off, I've never experienced it on trail, but I'd assume it hold up well. Just make sure you have a case on your iPad, extra protection. You never know and those darn things are SO expensive.
