Well not having any luck,the one Toyota in Houston with the v6 sold before I had a chance to look at it.Theres a couple for sale with 4 cyl but they dont look so great.I went and looked at a couple that werent toyotas and they looked like crap in person as compared to pics.Theres a toyota for sale in Austin that looks ok but he's asking more then I want to spend and it doesnt have a generator. https://austin.craigslist.org/rvs/5831771970.html I dont want to go over 10,000.I see plenty for sale in AZ or CA for under 10 grand,but thats just too far to go to look at one,and I dont want to buy one sight unseen from my previous experiences. Anyone here in AZ can go look at them for me?

I did not know they made some models with a slide,thats amazing.Would love to see more pictures of one

That was cool as hell,almost too cool to drive and get messed up

What a bummer

Thanks for the heads up,I havent even bought a rig yet lol,but I figured for 10 bucks I'd take the chance even though I dont know what the dreaded"no spark"problem is or where this module goes

Well thats confusing,seemed like you were recommending the Shell Rotella but then you switched to Mobil 1 and are burning less oil,so which one are you still using?

Lol yep.I've reinforced a few of my travel trailers.Here in Tx I can pull this train which I've done quite a few times

Just about every Toyota rv {v6}I've seen for sale already has a towing hitch installed,so obviously a lot of people are using them.I would only do it occaisonally and where I live its all flat,no hills.The farthest I would probably tow anything would be 100 miles,most trips would be under 50.The boat might be too heavy but I would like to trailer my small dune buggy to some local atv parks or to the beach.I dont want to go with a bigger rv because I'd like to be able to keep it in my driveway as i am already paying storage fees on another rv.i'm not sure how much the boat weighes,it's a jetski that slides into a small boat.The dune buggy{1990 Honda Pilot fl400 atv}weighs about 600 lbs which will be on a 5x8 trailer.

Yeah thats what I was thinking{about the transmission}

Since I've never drove one I dont know but I had always heard that those 4 bangers barely did the job they had with the camper shell,I dont know how they are being able to tow something on top of that.

Lol yeah I thought somebody might say something about that

Ok thanks for advice Saw this on San Antonio craigslist and was pretty shocked by pic https://sanantonio.craigslist.org/rvs/5867516290.html He only had 1 pic and this is it,he's pulling this dunebuggy with a 4 banger!? Holy crap

Ok thanks

Well I wont be towing all the time but would like to some times.It's a small boat but probably about 2000 lbs This one is currently for sale near me but I havent went and looked at it https://houston.craigslist.org/rvs/5808905835.html

Thanks for all the replies,some good advice for me.Totem thanks but I'm going to want to occaisonally want to pull small boat behind it.For those of you with the V6,how much weight do you pull with it if any? Also V6 owners,anything in particular I need to watch out for on the engine or transmission? When do the timing belts/chain need to be replaced? Approximate cost? Also on the moisture tester,do those pins need to puncture the material you are testing or just touch it? thanks

Hello from Texas Never owned motorhome before, been wanting to get a Toyota for years. I will be looking to purchase one within the next couple of months and need advice on what to look for and things to check. I've owned multiple travel trailers, and the last 2 I've bought had hidden water damage that I did not detect before purchasing, so that is my main concern. I know the easy things to look for, soft floor, soft walls, obvious water staining, etc. I would think most of these have probably sustained some water damage over the years, I just don't want to end up with one that's completely rotted inside the walls. I am only going to focus on Toyotas with the V6 and I want one with a generator. Any help is appreciated. thanks
