Re: Need advice on toy hauler swaying on freeway

IMO if you want to not experience those things, skip the Eco-boost and go for a long bed diesel. OTOH, once I got used to 2500-2900 rpm for several days, 1600-2000rpm seemed too low. Just like the change when I moved from my first car with a 3spd automatic to something modern. :-)429Views0likes0CommentsRe: Need advice on toy hauler swaying on freeway

Bottom line, (assuming the Toyota numbers I found are correct) you need a bigger truck. FWIW, GCWR with tow package is 11,100. 8,700 is less than 11,100.421Views0likes0Comments
