Small Trailer for Tacoma

Hi all, I'm looking at small trailers in the 13-14 ft range that would be suitable to tow behind my standard cab 4wd Tacoma. The contenders are the Jayco 145RB and KZ 130RB. I like the extra windows, aluminum roof, larger tanks and 4 stabilizer jacks on the KZ. I'm just not sure if I'm comfortable with the 13inch wheels. Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated. I want to keep my price point in the $11,000.00 -$13,000.00 range.

I'd be looking at a 17 foot Casita. Well buikt trailer that'll last for years sbd also has a high resale value too. I tow one behind my 2017 Tacoma with row package. And I get on average 14 to 16 mpg towing.

Excellant point. I will be going to check it out and will look at them.
Thanks so much.
I wish there was a way to do a test tow before buying.
Maybe someone on this forum has a similar set up. Most likely not.

Why? You haven't indicated whether these are 175s or 185s but especially if the latter their load rating is sufficient for a trailer with a GVWR of just 2800 lbs.

We looked at T@B, Scamp, Casita and RPod's before buying more truck and getting an Airstream.
