Once you get the camping bug, you'll be looking at trailers with a little more room. If you have a Tacoma that is already at it's max, you would need to upgrade both, truck and trailer.
If you go looking at F150, Tundra, etc, keep in mind, not all trucks of a particular make / model are created equal. Depending on trim levels, options, and cab configurations, their payloads and tow capacities can vary considerably. Even the Tacoma has varying levels of payload and tow capacity.
Example:
There is a version of F150 with a payload below 800 lbs, there is a version with payload above 3000 lbs, and various versions in between. When you go shopping, you need to check each and every truck.
