A Toyota? You have got to be putting us on. Forget it. That's at least a 12,500 lb. load on a steel trailer with fuel.

Its the whole rig I wouldnt mess with. Like most of these questions....yes, it can be done. Would it suck? Yes. Will you be ok pulling it around a parking lot? Yes. Will you be way under-trucked on the road and at a dangerous level? Yes.

That may be one of those "loaded at Home Depot" photos. Squashed at the back and nothing touching the ground to steer with.

Default tow vehicle

any thing rated at towing approx. 12,500 I would begin looking at. Or, if you seldom tow it, look at what your friends have.
