Hey all,

Hopefully I don't get dragged for this, but I'm not too familiar with the process for determining whether a truck is capable of towing a specific load. I have a 1993 Toyota T-100 Sr5 long bed 2wd.The motor was overhauled about 5000 miles ago and runs strong! I am looking into buying a travel trailer as I am a traveling electrician.

I came across a travel trailer that I really like, but I'm really concerned as to whether my T-100 is capable of towing it safely. The specs for the travel trailer are as referenced below:

2010 Forest River Grey Wolf T28BHKS

Dry Hitch Weight:752 lbs
Unloaded Vehicle Weight: 5296 lbs
Axle Weight: 4544 lbs
Ship Weight: 5296 lbs
GVWR W/ Brakes: 7752 lbs
Cargo Carrying Capacity: 2456 lbs

I realize this may be an absolutely idiotic question, but any help and insight would be GREATLY appreciated.

I only need to tow the RV about 90 miles from where its located now in Odessa TX to Jaal New Mexico. I thought maybe including the destinations would help with topography/terrain questions.

Thanks in advance!!

 

without looking up ur trucks gvwr, i can bet the legal answer is no. But thats a pretty flat drive so you could do it with a good wind.
4 cyl or 6?

 

The T100 will be over gross with the trailer empty. T100 is not the truck for this trailer & load.
'93 would have a 3.0 V-6. Not a good engine for towing heavy loads.
You need a full size truck, 3/4 ton or better.
