Question: Payload sticker changed my whole truck-shopping plan

2023 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro, about 78,000 miles. I was focused on tow rating until I started adding passengers, gear and tongue weight. Now payload looks like the real limit. How much buffer do you personally leave for a family towing setup? Trying to diagnose before I book a shop.

Software recalls make me ask how much of 'driving' lives in a module now. Check whether your 2023 Toyota 4Runner VIN is actually in the affected batch before you plan a dealer day. I'd do that before spending real money. Keep sale price, fees, and rate as three different conversations. Might be overthinking it, but I'd rather overthink than overspend.

Thanks — that narrowed it. I'm going to try the simpler check on the 2023 Toyota 4Runner first. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.
