Toyota Tundra 5.7 Liter
I have a Toyota Tundra 5.7 SST and I am pulling a 29' Mallard M29 2017...6100 lbs dry weight. Am I good with hauling the trailer to South Dakota later this summer? Any input is helpful. Thanks

For a longer trip, I expect you to have around 7500 pounds of loaded weight with 900-1000 pounds of TW. Payload could be a problem. If you have 4.30 gears, power will not be.
OP, consider this.
I will be towing a trailer weighing 6500 lbs ready to go with my Tundra. Tongue weight is 800 pounds. 3 passengers at 500 pounds, 2 dogs at 100 pounds plus my wife's purse. The yellow sticker on my door jam says my payload can be as much as 1410 lbs. Might have to leave the purse at home.
My 5.7 has tons of power, but in spite of being 3300 pounds under the 9800 lb tow weight rating of the truck, I am right on my payload number.
