That's like 400 pounds over the spec for a 1993 or so Tacoma - you may be accused of truck abuse  >:(

There was no Tacoma until 1995.  Before that it was the Toyota "Pickup".

I think it might be almost 700 lbs over....

But, I have hauled around a ton in it at least 20 times.  I bet in total, over the past 12 years, I've hauled 200 tons in it.

That is a lot of weight for your truck.
