Buddy buys Tundra to pull 7500lbs.
My buddy bought a Tundra to pull a 7500lbs travel trailer. From what I have read, its rated to pull 10,800...But the consensus in this forum is that with the trailer being loaded, passengers, and a load in the bed, the truck cannot handle this load. I asked him where and when he was traveling with this trailer. He did not laugh when I said that I needed this information so that I would not be traveling the same road with his "deathtrap."
He traded in his FJ with a lift. It had a sticker in large letters on the rear window that said "Hummer Rescue Vehicle." I tried many times to explain that it was cheesy and childish. Some will never learn or listen.

Id rather have the better frame, its not so much about getting the load moving quickly as it is how you handle it once up to speed

Your buddy is a shmuck, Hummer rescue? Ya, OK, but anyways he'll be finding out the hard way with his POS Tundra. 7500 lbs? C'mon, he's saying he needs to buy that to pull that, hell, mine pulled that before and well I might add. I'd be more careful when I pull a Bobcat around on a 20ft flat deck, but that day will come and go too.
Honestly, it's his lame excuse to buy that 4 wheel Walrus of a truck, or whatever the hell it is. Uh-oh, gotta stop, this is turning into a General discussion yoda bash fest. However on a lighter side, people should realize in real life, people who post in this section often will agree, strength of the truck overall pulls more and pulls well. Not needing to do 13's while doing it is another thing. What are you racing to, the next 200 dollar fillup?

If you got a 401 hp engine, with 400 ft/lbs of torque... and you've got a 2.73 rear end, you'd be lucky to pull 3,000 lbs.
