I have a 2006 tacoma with the TRD off road package (v6, tow package, etc). I haul a 16foot trailer that has a dry weight of 2000lbs. Last weekend we were towing in a very hilly area and the tacoma did great up hill and also down. I had a bit of worry coming down the hill as it seemed like the brakes were close to their max but i took it slow and everything was fine (I'm also a worry worm ;). I would think if your trailer has brakes on it, you would be great going with a Tacoma. I love mine.
I do agree with other posters about pressing the limits of the tow ratings. I would feel more comfortable towing around 4000-4500 lbs total. Start getting past that and i think it feels a little scary.
