Towing with a tundra in the mountains
Considering going to Colorado and towing a 30' TT with a 2016 Tundra. Weight is about 6400 lbs. I would like some feedback on what to expect.

The 2016 Toyota tundra with a 5.7 has more horsepower than the old big blocks like the 454 and the 460 which were the standard for towing the biggest loads.Also,the payloads for the Tundra start at over 3/4 of a ton to over a ton,so yes,not a problem for that Tundra.
My F-150 also had a payload that exceeded 1500 lbs and had only 305 horses which still was more than the old big bores..I have owned and pulled with both the 454 and 460 and I have a 460 now,these newer smaller engines just have more horses and get up and go.I pulled my 30ft trailer with ease with the F-150.
You should not have any problems if set up right..
