I have a 08' Tacoma 4x4 with the 4.0 litre v-6 and I have had zero problems pulling around a Tuffy 1760 with a 150 on it. The weight should be similiar to what you are looking to pull. Make sure you follow the manufacturers specs ( I lock out OD on my truck) and you should be fine. It helps to have a trans and oil cooler (tow package) as well as the 4x4 models as they typically come with larger breaks and four piston calipers for the front breaks. My truck is listed as a 6,000 lb tow capacity. I believe if you stay close to 50% of what the manufacturer claims is the tow capacity then you should be fine.
