I picked up my new 178 today and it pulled beautifully with my Tacoma. You should not have any problems.

Happy travels!

Was the long bed hard to find?  I prefer it, but I don't see too many for sale.

From what I've seen many people who buy Tacoma's prefer the Off Road/ Short bed version.  When I bought mine they had a few in stock so it wasn't a big deal, but I don't think they build as many long beds though.  Hope this helps, happy hunting!

I have a 2013 Tundra and I added the back up camera from Toyota, I think what they mean by that statement is if you have the in dash navigation system then that becomes your viewer, if you don't have it then you also have to purchase a new rear view mirror which has the screen in the left hand side. Guess they are covering themselves.

There is a Toyota dealer in North Carolina that sells original parts at a 20% discount, but I just asked the local parts guy to match the price and he did.

We pulled our R-Pod with a 03 Tundra that had the 6 cylinder engine and didn't have any real problems other than hills and high winds, we pull a Surveyor with our Tundra(big engine) now and to some extent have the same problem just not as defined.
