[Rhodes22-list] towing a Rhodes 22 w/ a Toyota Tacoma?

[David Culp]

Hi Bill:

I live in the Hill Country of Central Texas.  I have a Nissan Frontier V-6
2-wheel drive.  It has a tow package which I thinks means that the trailer
wires were run.  In other words, no transmission cooler or anything else
extra.  Mine has a 6000 lbs. limit on the custom hitch.  No problems at all
going up and down the grades with my Rhodes 22, but these aren't mountains
either.

Regards,
David Culp

I have just about talked myself into a Rhodes 22, but before getting
too far down this road I want to know if anyone else has experienced
towing a Rhodes 22 with a Toyota Tacoma.  My truck is a 2008 Tacoma
4x4 w/  a 6-cylinder and tow package.  I live in the mountains of
western North Carolina and the closest "real" water is an hour away.
Does anyone have any advice?  I am not sure I can swing a new boat and
a new truck.
Thanks, Bill
