"He explained that Toyota towing rating has some 20% allowance -- so technically his towing vehicle's actually 6,000 lbs. capability." Toyota never said that. This "engineer" said it...and it fits his NEED for towing capacity.
"And he said, his trailer had tandem tires each side, so it's a lighter pull than single tire trailer because the weight is resting on the tires -- not the front of the trailer on the hitch."
