The Best Toyota Cars for Summer Road Trips

Planning a summer road trip or a weekend getaway to the lake? Want a truck or SUV that can tow and haul whatever you need it to? Whether we’re talking jet skis, a camper, or a boat, our Toyota dealers serving Jacksonville, FL have several vehicles on-hand that will fit the bill nicely for your summer adventures.

2018 Toyota Tacoma: This multi-award winner is one of the industry’s most capable trucks. In fact, the Toyota Tacoma is the best-selling midsize pickup over the last 10 years. And when you pair the 2018 model’s available Atkinson-cycle 3.5-liter direct-injection V6 engine with the optional Tow Package, you get a midsize pickup that can tow a herculean 6,800 pounds and handle a payload of up to 1,440 pounds. Plus if your summer explorations involve off-roading, few trucks can match the 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro.

2018 Toyota Tundra: Toyota Motor Company makes a 2018 Toyota Tundra for all tastes, from the entry-level 2018 Toyota Tundra SR to the 2018 Toyota Tundra 1794 Edition. One thing every trim has in common is a tough, rugged demeanor and plenty of tripper-friendly innovations: an available lower-and-lift tailgate, an optional deck rail system, and a max tow capacity of 10,200 pounds. What else would you expect from a truck that once towed the Space Shuttle Endeavor?

2018 Toyota Sequoia: Here’s a full-size SUV perfect for families whose adventures lie far beyond the beach or the amusement park. This vehicle’s 5.7-liter V8 engine and optional multi-mode 4WD system make for an unstoppable combination – and how many SUVs can you think of that have an available tow capacity of 7,400 pounds, plus trailer-sway control and a special tow/haul mode?
