You'll struggle with that Tacoma pulling anything over 2K lbs. It's not made to pull anything bigger like a travel trailer. My suggestion would be to get a bigger truck.
That's right, it's not. You should get a 3/4 ton. Oh, wait, they are the same price as the 1 ton. Get that instead!! Course, they are wimpy compared to a "REAL MAN's" TV, either a Kenworth, or a 12-ton Army truck. That's what you REALLY need. An ARMY TRUCK!! Only $100,000 and it requires an acre to turn around on, but they can pull almost anything!! Including a train of 3/4 and 1 ton trucks tied bumper-to-bumper. No, wait...A MERCEDES UNIMOG!!! With 20 forward creeper gears, it can pull a freight train. AND A 12-TON ARMY TRUCK!!! At .01mph, but IT CAN PULL IT!!
Keep your 'ready-to-roll' tow weight to <75% of rated, about 4800#, and go have a blast. And save your hard-earned $$ for Margaritas on the beach.
