Yes sign man, but how much did you have to spend on modifications for the Tundra in order to get it to where you "don't even know it's back there half the time?"
You are easily 1000lbs over the truck's manufacturer specifications on weight, not to mention well beyond the rated capacity of the stock tires.
Just because it can be done does not mean everyone should do it. Frankly it takes a special kind of person to slap a 2500lb camper in a 1/2 ton truck and hit the road, and I mean that in a POSITIVE way.
You've got to be a da*ned good driver.
You've got to have a good technical and analytical mind to determine what you need to add to the truck to handle the load.
You've got to be good with tools to install all the add-ons.
You've got to be patient and expect it will take you a little longer to get from A to B.
You've got to have an overwhelmingly positive attitude towards life.
Frankly, I got sick of the mushy, sluggish handling just towing around a 3500lb trailer with my 1/2 ton pickup. I couldn't imagine trying to haul a 2500lb camper.
