Just went through this, complex decision lots of factors, but let me cut to the chase and share my conclusions based on lots of advice, but not on personal experience (yours may vary, etc.):
- For the 30 foot and larger TMs, 5000 lbs of towing capacity is advised.
- For the smaller TMs, 3500 is advised, more being better in steep hills, etc.
- Weight distributing hitch is advised unless you have a very large tow vehicle. Sway control is not necessary.
As a long time Toyota fan, I bought a Sequoia for our new 3124KS. Had I bought a 2720, I'd have gone with a 4Runner.
Good luck and hope we are soon trading stories.
