I already know my truck is overloaded and it just keeps getting worse, but for some reason it actually does handle the weight better when fully loaded. Being a little over is ok, but when i take my 900lb motorcycle with that puts me way over and is the reason that i feel the need to go back to a 3/4 or 1 ton truck soon.

Aside from that i have been supprisingly happy with how the tundra tows.

When will you guys ever stop harrassing them on RV.net...lol
I keep telling you the Tundra IS a 3/4 ton, they just forgot to label it as such.

OK maybe I'm kidding, but the rating stick is only part of the equation. You might find the daily drive with a 3/4 worth the extra peace of mind that the heavier components of the bigger truck gives you. Maybe not.

As far as RV.net goes, anyone that takes themselves too seriously is ASKING to be bugged.
