Cardboard Hauler?

I now have over 40k on my Toyota "cardboard hauler".

By the time my brother-in-law had that much mileage on his Dodge "real work truck" he was on his third transmission.

I still have the factory original.

"Cardboard hauler? Yup! that is what I said. What is meant by that is very simply, put a 5th wheel in a Toyota or put in a Goose neck. Not likely right?"

Well... no, wrong. I have had a 5th wheel hitch in my Tundra since it was new. I routinely pull a 5th wheel travel trailer and heavy loads from the ball hitch.

I have pulled tractors round trip between Reno and Portland. Every load I have pulled has been uphill and over mountain passes as high as 8500 feet.

Tundra's are factory equipped to tow 7000 pounds and can keep it's driveline intact within those parameters and do some work.

"Toyota is just fine if you are going to compare 1/2 ton to 1/2 ton."

That's all I was looking for.

If we are going to start ragging about who spends too much time on-line we will need some sort of standard to apply:
