only because you brought up your model # you will get a kick out of this ,
Yesterday I went to the dealer to look at the trailers again and as I was leaving there was a brand new passport in the parking lot hooked up to atruck getting ready to leave , from the back I couldn't notice what kind of truck then as I walked to the front I noticed the truck , get ready !!!!!!!!

It was a Toyota Tacoma V6 , the guy was like its my first time towing something this big , I said " And I was worried about that size trailer with my 1500 diesel "

So any way I had to wait for him to leave with the truck to see how it pulled ,

He get's in truck and it look's like he's getting ready to go an the truck just does a bounce like the brakes are on , I see him looking out of his mirrors a few times like is there a wheel cock in there that stopping me , and then finally he get's it rolling I bet he had to redline that motor up just to break the wheels loose and get going , after that he was gone

Any way after seeing that I felt better about my 1500 diesel

I wonder what model passport it was. I have a 3290BH that weighs in at ~6300lbs dry and I tow with a Tundra 5.7l. I could not imagine a Tacoma towing it. Up hills it revs pretty hard with my setup from a dead stop.
