We did several trips pulling our Starcraft Launch 15FD with the 07 RAV4. That engine has a lot of HP (369 vs the 190 in my 01 Tacoma), so that wasn't' really the issue.
It seemed, however, that the body just wasn't up to the stresses being put on it.
Since the Tacoma was showing it's age, I managed to talk myself into getting a '14 Tacoma, which pulls it nicely.
I'm kinda stuck in a rut -- went from a '90 Toyota pickup to an '01 Tacoma to a '14 Tacoma. 25 years and about 420K miles between the 3 trucks.
