2010 Toyota Sequoia towing capabilities
Can someone help me? I am new to this whole trailer thing. We have a 2010 Sequoia. We are wanting to get a Forest River hybrid 233s. Here are the specs for it. GVW: 6,780 Dry Weight: 4,670 Payload ...

I have a Sequoia with the tow package and air leveling suspension. The motor and transmission aren't the problem. It has a 4.3 rear end tied to a torquey (for gas) motor.
Like others have said, your truck payload will be the issue. If your kids are small, you might be able to squeeze it out IF you kept your tounge weight down to 10-12% (by loading the rear of the trailer), but you are looking at lots of effort to effectively manage everything....and it won't work long as your kids grow (they would have to all average 50lbs or less to even make it work now). If you have twins and young kids and are looking to make it work for a season or two it might be okay, but you wouldn't be able to haul much.
Problem is there isn't much out there that can handle 7 people (and all their stuff) and tow any kind of load. A 3/4 ton suburban (which they don't make anymore).
It depends on your trip length. If you had your wife drive a separate car you could do alright with the Sequoia.
