towing with 2007 tundra 4.7


Hi Everybody!
We bought 2009 Outback 210RS. My problem is I have a 2007 Toyota Tundra 4.7 liter double cab with a GCVW of 13500 lb and the GVWT is 6700 lb. Keystone claims that the shipping weight is 4865 lb. I will also be running with a husky WD hitch with sway control. Toyota has told me I can tow 8100 lb. What are the maximum weights that you haul with this size engine?
Thanks

you might also want to post this here. You should be fine with a trailer of that size. Is it a toy hauler?

Thanks for your help. No it's not a toy hauler but it may as well be with all the kids junk in it. LOL

You should be good to go man. You can tow a larger trailer later on down the road with the 4.7 if you wish.

Happy camping to you. We just picked up a 2006 Jayco 27BH I think it weighs 5500#'s and the tundra tows it like a dream. I also have WD bars.

Your new Tundra will pull that size camper with ease. We have a 2006 Outback 27RSDS that has a dry weight around 6500lbs and we use to pull it with a 2006 4.7 Tundra and it did fine. We now have a 2007 5.7 Crew Cab Tundra and you don't even feel the trailer. We took it on our vacation this year to Panama City Florida from Tennessee and it did great. Only downfall was the gas prices at the time but the tow was nothing. Congrats on the trailer and Happy Camping!!!!
