Question:

I have a 2014 Toyota 4 runner limited. What tow equipment is needed to install on my Toyota so I can tow behind my RV. Thank you.

I looked up the manual for your 2014 Toyota 4Runner and on page 191 under "Dinghy Towing" Toyota states not to tow your vehicle with all 4 wheels on the ground so you need to get a trailer to transport your 4Runner.

Some people like to put magnetic lights on their trailered vehicle and tie those in to the trailer lights so other people on the road get more of a full picture of what's going on. If this is what you'd like to do then I recommend checking out the Optronics Magnetic Lights # TL21RK which come with a small pigtail you can splice into your trailer wiring so you only have to have the magnetic lights installed when you're actually using them.
