2008-20013 3/4 ton GM SUVs are about the same. Tow rating is 9400 pounds for 4WD, 9600 pounds for 2WD. Payload is over 2000 pounds, up to 2400 pounds for a lightly equipped 2WD. This is ours:

We carry 750-1100 pounds in the cabin while towing with 800 pounds of loaded TW when towing our TT. We can tow at 70mph all day long while cruising in comfort, or kids taking naps after active vacations.
The Tundra has about the same amount of power and gearing (shorter axle, taller trans ratios). It just runs out of suspension and payload about 600 pounds under the 3/4 ton GM SUVs. Oh, plus 6-7 passenger comfort!
