Is a Prado a good tow vehicle?
Real-world towing
In our last towing test, the Toyota Prado was dogged by an unsettled towing performance with two different tandem-axle trailers weighing 2500kg to 2800kg. Not only did it pitch fore-aft often but also would yaw very easily. It was not altogether a pleasant towing experience.
Is towball weight included in payload?
Payload is any mass you add to the vehicle’s tare mass. For tow vehicles, this includes passengers, luggage, aftermarket bull bars and the tow ball mass. Payload does not include standard specifications set by the manufacturer such as fuel and coolant.
Can you increase tow ball capacity?
If you want to know how to increase tow ball weight capacity, you need to check with the manufacturer, to see if it can be done with a different tow bar. In some cases, there are aftermarket products that will do this too; suspension/chassis/tow bar upgrades.
