Hello and greetings ...I just ordered a TQ 261 from the factory dealer which is about 50 mi. from my house, in Elkhart IN. It is about 3-4 weeks out. I wanted some options that the dealer didn't have on any of the units on his lot. This is a great TT toyhauler & it is engineered to be towed with a 1/2 ton pickup. The dry wt. is somewhere between 7200 lb. & 7600 lb. depending on the options you load on it. I also looked at the coachmen 301 blds a couple feet shorter & lighter but not built as well as the Torque. The Torque can push the upper limits of some 1/2 ton trucks but not dangerously from all I can calculate. I have a Tundra with the 5.7L I-Force V8 & the 6 speed auto with a tow package. I hope to be doing a lot in the coming year with it. I retired in Jan. of this year so we are heading out next spring. We winter in Fla. so we won't use it much until April or so. I hope there are some other 261 owners out there on this forum so I can pick their brain some.
