New Tundra Owner (nicknamed Big Red)

Hello All. I am joining as it is good to share info among other owners of your truck. I look forward to learning and later sharing with all of you. I am jazzed about my Tundra. Its only the second pickup I've owned in my 47 years of driving. It will not be my main vehicle, but I need it to tow my pontoon boat, and later, maybe a 5th wheel. I already enjoy driving it more than the Expedition it is replacing, even with the 18 MPG I've gotten on the highway so far. It is already 13 years old with only 96K miles, but in such good condition, I feel it likely will last me until i stop driving.

 

Welcome aboard and congrats on the new-to-you truck. I tow my party barge and travel trailer with mine and it's a fine tow vehicle for sure. Not sure you'll be able to find a lot of support for towing a fifth wheel trailer though. These are not the best tow vehicle for that with the limited payload and short bed length.

 

Welcome from NY.

 

Thank you for the reply. I was not aware it would not be good for a fifth wheel for those reasons. First thing i have learned on the forum. Guess I will have to go with a travel trailer.
