    Just curious, what is the tongue weight on that? Second question, how do you intend to get around with the front wheels off the ground?

    Don't need a CDL for private use. That's why you see scary motor home drivers... then again, so long as you can fog a mirror you can get a CDL. :notsure:

    Have you tried asking the dealer to launch it for you? Wtf

    If you want to know if the tundra can pull it the obvious answer is yes. Trailers have wheels on them. Wheels make things easier to move.

    Rereading the OP's post, I don't think he ever intended to tow it. He said he knows it's a no, and then asked what others had towed over capacity.
