Greetings,
I have a 1965 Globe Trotter and am exploring tow-vehicle options. I've had
wonderful experience with Toyota products in the past so I'm looking at the
04 V8 4-Runner and the 04 Sequoia as possible candidates. If anyone has
personal experience towing with either of these vehicles, or general
knowledge about pulling Airstreams that you would like to share, I would
love to get your input. Here are the relevant specs:
