I hope you guys test the "water" with this offroad airstream when you're using the 4RN. Not many videos out there show this or the 16X on forest service roads or even off a highway. Looking to also invest with the wife and two dogs out in CO. Enjoy the travels and keep using that solar!

Hi! We actually still have and use both the Airstream and the 4Runner. The 20X is definitely pushing the limits of the 4Runner, but it does excellent at handling the towing. We took it up and down snowy mountain passes and all over the US. The sag in the back of the 4Runner can be improved by managing weight distribution. Overall, I would give the 4Runner a solid B+ at towing the 20X.

I also own a TRD Pro 4RUNNER and was wondering about your towing experience with this set up? Pros or cons any input would be helpful. We live in Nevada so we do have elevation issues. One of the reasons I chose the 4RUNNER was the 5,000 lbs towing capacity. Thank for sharing you experiences.

The 4Runner does great at handling the Basecamp, but if you are going with a 20X beware because they tongue weight of the 20X is 550 lbs and the max load for the 4Runner’s tongue is rated at only 500 lbs. We wish we had learned this before purchasing, because the Basecamp 20 has a tongue weight of 500. We’ve had no problems with the 4Runner so far (even over mountain passes and in snow), but we are looking into other possible SUV options (such as the Land Rover Defender). In the mean time, we’ll be getting rest wheel airbags to improve suspension. We’ll make a video on the topic soon.
@C130ML
2 жыл бұрын
@@brockjohnson3575 Thank you for the response. Old trick to change the tongue wt is how you load the trailer you can move the center of gravity by placement of your cargo in the trailer. The principle is similar to how we loaded aircraft when I was a Loadmaster in the Air Force. For example placing weight back further from the trailer's axle will decrease the weight on the tongue. This might help where you would not need the suspension mods. Merry Christmas
