Tow/Haul Mode?

[RED675]

I don't see that it has one. My last vehicle was a Volvo XC90 V8 Sport and when you plugged in the trailer lights it automatically put the trans into tow mode via the tow module in the car.

Anyone who has towed with the T4R have any insight? I usually tow a 3000lb enclosed 6x12 but have thought about a small toyhauler, but that may be pushing the tow limits of the T4R.

No tow/haul mode. I've towed up to 3500lbs and the 4runner seemed to struggle trying to maintain the speed limit (70mph) on the highway. No sagging issues.

Thanks for the response...I was afraid of that. I don't tow too much, only when I take my bike to the track, but some of the tracks that I go to (VIR, Beaver Run, NJMP) are 4+ hrs away. I am worried about the power, my last vehicle (Volvo XC90) had 300 hp and 320 ft/lb of torque and it seemed to do the job, the the 4runner is giving up some power. I just don't want to get a full size truck...Ugh
