    Towing Capacity without Trailer Brakes?

    Tow dolly with brake sounds good. I wonder if I could tow a 5300 lb Toyota 4Runner with it?

    I'd like to travel travel through the Rockies. I was thinking of camping in the van and going off-road with a little 4 wheel drive pickup or something similar.
