Just be aware parts are getting hard to come by-well maintained examples are real expensive- 25k plus. Check for rust as most of them in the cheaper range have it. As for gearing- mine runs on 33s, front and rear bumpers and it’s not regeared and I don’t plan on a re-gear.
3300lbs empty translates to 3700 loaded, 15% tongue weight is around 600lbs, well add yourself and a passenger 400lbs, that leaves you a whopping 200lbs for anything you throw in the bed. Payload is your issue, not towing capacity. Most tacomas are around 1200lb- 4 door, 4wd, etc.
Camper- 250lbs
Driver- 200lbs
Passenger 150 lbs
600lb cargo capacity
Not picking on this truck- I think it’s sweet, just hate how all the companies do trucks for the NA market.
Lol we will just disagree. They babied that thing and it failed. The whole experience was a train wreck for Land Rover. I’m still a fan of their old defenders so don’t take this as just a bash on the brand….
Right - what’s wrong with that? You lamented the fact that lots of people watched the video of a defender shortcoming and all the related videos. It’s no different than rubberneckers on the road, people like crashes. You can’t be upset at TFL- you should be upset at Land Rover- if anyone at all..
