Thought you 5th-wheelers would want to know...
The 2007 Tundra iGuide (CD) states the following:
"Keep in mind that current 5th-wheel trailer designs are not compatible with Tundra Standard Bed models."
Having just bought a 2007 Tundra double-cab standard bed model to tow a trailer, I was HORRIFIED! I quickly wrote to Toyota for clarification. Here is our exchange:

Customer09/12/2007 04:56 PMThank you for your prompt reply. My feeling is that your 2007 Tundra iGuide should be corrected to reflect the information you provided below. Otherwise, it will be distressing to some buyers to hear the iGuide state that Standard Bed models are incompatible with current 5th wheel trailer designs. I know that I am relieved to find out that that is NOT the case! Thanks again.

We apologize for your concern regarding which 2007 Tundra model can tow a 5th wheel trailer.
The 2007 Tundra standard bed and the 2007 Tundra long bed has the capability to tow a 5th wheel hitch.
Toyota has not tested the Tundra to tow a 5th wheel, therefore we do not have any conversion kits available to covert a 2007 Tundra vehicle to use a 5th wheel trailer.
If a condition arises on the vehicle and that condition can be attributed to an improperly installed or improperly fitting part, the warranty on the affected component may be voided. Vehicle manufacturers warranty covers defects in material or workmanship and would not cover a condition caused by factors beyond the manufacturer’s control. Toyota Customer Experience
Customer09/11/2007 10:33 AMYour 2007 Tundra iGuide states that the 2007 Tundra Standard Bed model is not compatible with current 5th wheel trailer designs. I thought that is ONLY true for the short bed model (Crew Cab model) and not true for the other models (Standard Bed model and Long Bed model). Is the Long Bed model the ONLY Tundra model that is compatible with 5th wheel trailers?
