I'm new to all of this, so pardon the dumb answers. Yall can make fun of me too, it wont bother me . I bought a Tacoma last year with hopes of getting a wake boat in the near future. Obviously it worked out and I ended up with a 2008 XLV GG edition.

the math... 2020 Tacoma TRD off road 4x4, its rated to tow 6300-6800#s. The boat is 3600#s, maybe 4600#s with the trailer. So, obviously, I'm in the range.

I have no experience towing, but it doesn't feel all that comfortable. No problems getting it in and out of the water, but I can't envision driving 4 hours on the interstate to take it to a lake out of town. It just feels like its straining the truck.

Do I need to bite the bullet and upgrade my truck, or is that just the feeling towing that weight?

Thanks for any input.
