2010 Toyota Sequoia towing capabilities

Welcome to the Forum.

Let's put first things first. Load your Sequoia just like you would be loading it as a tow vehicle.

This means minimal luggage, that should be in the trailer. So take you and your family...iPods, toys, etc...the stuff you take on a trip.

Fill up the SUV at a gas station with a CAT scale and weigh it with you and your family in the SUV after you fill up.

Should cost you about $9.00

Also, the tire loading sticker is specd at 33 PSI...your tires are going to handle 44-50 PSI... While towing..air them up to the max PSI on the side wall. This will make the truck feel more stable while towing.

Do this and post back with the numbers from the cat scale.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum !

First is to decide if you believe in the ratings systems or not

If not, then do whatever but know you have taken the OEMs off the hook for
warranty and liability

If yes, then read and learn HOW2

Next is to load up your TV as if going to tow and weigh it axle by axle

That will then tell you where you are in reference to 'your' vehicles ratings

All classes of TV's can be over their ratings, but the lowest class gets into
over weight trouble sooner or with smaller trailers (fiver and TT)

Depending on the weigh of your family, pets and cargo...betcha will have little
room for the tongue weight. Might not have enough for a popup

Am of no help until you provide actual weights of how your TV will be loaded up
ready to go camping

PS...kids tend to grow and another question is how long do you keep
your vehicles? Also, many advisors discount babies and toddlers...forgetting
all the 'stuff' that comes along with them... :B

You are limited by the payload of 545 KG or 1200 pounds. That includes everything carried in the truck: passengers, weight of the hitch, dogs, luggage and whatnot. When that trailer is loaded the hitch weight will be closer to 900 pounds which leaves you very little weight left over for stuff in or on the truck. You are running up against the big problem with all the import trucks.
