  1. What is the hauling capacity on a 4 cylinder Toyota mini I have the 1986 sunrader 22RE EFI 22 feet rear wheel drive ? I believe my year was the year of the recall with the axle but mine got fixed I have the one ton axle lol. Also why are these vehicles able to haul more than they can tow ? 

  2. Hey guys so when I first got my Toyota mini I got the old battery tested at auto zone they said it was completely dead and I needed to get a new one so I got one they put the battery in for me and the lights started to work in the camper. We always made sure we turned them off before we left the camper ? They worked maybe for a week or so and now the lights don't work anymore do we always have to turn the electrical switches off to the power before leaving I think there also known as breaker or fuse switches the battery is dead now im new to the camper world total newbie so sorry if this is a obvious easy problem ? 

  3. I have a 1986 Toyota mini motor home sunrader 22 feet four cylinder 22RE EFI rear wheel drive would I be able to tow a jet ski or a 12 foot aluminum boat  ?Legally I can carry four people and I will probably travel light and not have to much equipment in the vehicle I know that engine has enough weight to pull already and want to respect that lol.

  4. I have a 1986 Toyota mini motorhome 22 feet 4 cylinder 22RE EFI  1 ton axle rear wheel drive LOL. I have heard obviously if you have the 4 cylinder version it will go slower and the engine will over heat when you drive up hills if I did enough hill driving would I literally blow the engine this is something I want to avoid obviously. I tested the vehicle up hills a few times I make sure the AC is off but one time I forgot and I slowed down traffic just a bit until I realized it was on and turned it off LOL. Has anyone had bad experiences mechanically from doing to much up hill driving and no I do not floor it when I go up hills thanks.

    I had to move my 1988 Minicruiser around my house last winter with 3"-4" of fresh snow. All flat here. It got much better traction then my Ford F250 (when in 2WD).  I was surprised it does as good as it does. But I suspect anyone who owns a 4WD pickup knows how bad traction is in 2WD mode on snow or ice. I guess a Toyota RV is kind of like having a front-wheel drive going backwards.  E.g. most of the weight is on the drive-axle. Or better yet - a BIG rear-engine, RWD VW Beetle from the 50s-60s.

    Nice thanks for the answer would up hill be pushing it depending how steep the hill is ?

  6. Hello new to this group I have a 1986 Toyota mini motorhome sunrader 4 cylinder with the 22RE 1 ton axle rear wheel drive LOL. I was wondering how good this thing would do in ice or light snow nothing crazy there is more than enough weight in the back of those rear tires for traction would it do okay on a flat serface if I went slow enough and had chains im just randomly curios I would not go up hills obviously.
