Many are biased against these types of cars, but the reality is, if you get your weights right, they are very capable cars.

Payload deficiencies have been well documented over the years, as has the max tow rating of 3.5t, but the reality is, most people tow well below that.
My personal opinion is..
That the 4 cylinder Dual cabs Towing capacity should be capped at around the 2500-2800kg mark..
Anything above that is asking for Trouble.. just My 2 cents..
