To all,
A very important thing to realize when attempting to tow a large trailer with a
marginal rig is that if you are ever involved in a mishap the insurance company will
be on your case.
God forbid, ....................... but if ever there is an accident they look for all
sorts of ways to get out of paying. Bald tires is one, ................... towing
something heavier than the tow vehicle is rated for is another. And for good reasons
as someone who attempts to "over-load" their rig is much more likely to be involved in
an accident.
Toyota builds an excellent rig, ................... but a 4-Runner was NOT designed to
tow the loaded weight of a large trailer around. To attempt to do so will shorten the
life of the rig as well as being possibly dangerous.
For EVERYONES safety ...................... please stay within the manufacter's stated
limits for your tow vehicle.
