Toyota Tundra Platinum Hybrid With Factory 3-Inch Lift Tows Coachmen Apex Nano

Toyota Tundra Platinum Hybrid With Factory 3-Inch Lift Tows Coachmen Apex Nano
Original source: Torque News

Owner Gerald Perea demonstrated towing a 2026 Coachmen Apex Nano 186BH travel trailer with a GVWR of 4,700 lbs and a length of 22 ft 11 in using a 2025 Toyota Tundra Platinum TRD Off-Road Hybrid with a factory 3-inch lift and i-FORCE MAX powertrain (437 hp, 583 lb-ft). The setup succeeds because the trailer's weight and dimensions stay within the truck's payload margin, not its maximum tow rating. The trailer lacks a slide, reducing weight and frontal area, and a properly sized 6,000-lb weight-distribution hitch maintains stability.

Toyota Tundra owner switches to GMC Sierra 3500HD after camper exceeds weight limits

Phil Walworth found his Grand Design Imagine 2800BH trailer's actual tongue weight was about 1,200 pounds, double the claimed 604 pounds. A CAT Scale weigh-in showed his Tundra was 400 pounds over GVWR, prompting an upgrade to a GMC Sierra 3500HD AT4 Diesel.

Ford Maverick Hybrid AWD Towed a 3,014-Pound Camper, But the 355-Pound Tongue Weight Is the Real Story

A 2025 Ford Maverick Lariat Hybrid AWD with the 4K Tow Package towed a single-axle camper weighing 3,014 pounds dry on 55-mph roads. After adding 450 pounds of cargo to the trailer and 200 pounds in the truck bed, the total combination approached the vehicle's limits. The tongue weight of 355 pounds, near the 400-pound maximum, raised concerns about using a weight-distributing hitch on the unibody Maverick. The owner opted for a sway bar kit instead.

A GMC Sierra EV owner towed a 28-foot Airstream 224 miles from Brooklyn to Somerville, Massachusetts, without stopping to charge, arriving with 14% battery remaining. The trip was conducted at an average speed of 60-65 mph. The implied full-pack towing range is approximately 260 miles. The result highlights the capabilities of large-battery electric pickups when towing aerodynamic trailers.

Toddler dies from injuries after I-80 camper rollover

A 23-month-old girl has died from injuries sustained in a camper rollover crash on Interstate 80 near Walcott, Iowa, the Scott County Sheriff's Office reported. The accident occurred on June 27 as the family was traveling from Wisconsin to Arizona. Investigators determined the camper began to sway, causing the driver to lose control and roll over. Both adults were wearing seat belts and the child's car seat was properly secured, but the toddler was not buckled into the seat itself, leading to her ejection.
