What do you tow? (pics)

Better question might be, what don't I tow?

Towing a water trailer...

Towing a construction trailer loaded with osb and doors...

Towing enclosed trailer while moving...

I also towed a dump trailer loaded with peastone to the tone of about 9000 lbs. I will also be towing my truck in May on the construction trailer...
 
Does hauling bikes count as 'towing', as long as I am using a hitch mounted rack??

I don't see why not!
You have a Nice runner there... that's the year i should have held out for. little saggage in the rear.. i see.. I lived with that with my 97 for a long time until i got sick of looking at it $200.00 and 45 minutes later i had spacers installed problem solved..
 
Thanks. About the saggage, I haven't noticed it before. But now that you mention it, I see it. Haven't seen it in other pics though. It may be because I have the seats down and the entire cargo area loaded with tons of camping gear. Dunno.
 
well i do know that there are a lot of posts about it... either here or on yotatech.. I know the 97's were good for it... who knows it might be just what you said you DO have a lot of gear there... either way i like your year better.. oh well.. my next runner will be a seqioua..
thanks for the reply
 
This was the first time I towed the boat with our 4Runner. Really happy with it and no problem at the boat ramp! Sure beats the old Dodge Dakota!

I haven't figured out how to post multiple pictures but here is the boat out at the lake. The water was very cool so swimming was an option but it will be next month.

Whats a Walley? I am on Vancouver Island and just fish for salmon in the summer months. I'm from Port Alberni and we have a 30 mile inlet that leads to the Pacific ocean. Lots of action with whales and other beasties.

This was a encounter last year that the son in law had.

We did ok with the samon too! I'm way off topic but here's a picture of a couple we got last August.

The runner is a 96 sr5 2wd.
I put the 4wd springs, daystar 2.5" spacers with tokico trakmaster.
Rims are 16x8 Zero offset with bfg 265x75's
Thanx...

This is actually my parents' 4Runner but here it is bringing my dad's new toy home. A 1969 Camaro SS in need of a restoration!

Jet ski ride in the NY, Nj area! visit the following link for more info!

All,
Just a quick note over at the Greenhulk.net site(Watercraft site) there will be a group ride on June 8th. I though that those of you who have pwc's might want to come down and ride in or around the NYC/NJ area.
I dont know how many more folks who are on this site or over at Yotatech have pwc's but i thought that this might be a good time. I'll have my Runner and my jetski.
All are welcome.
