I have the bed outlet in my Taco. I use it quited often and it does well. I believe that your Pod battery is charging when plugged into the Tacoma's towing plug. At idle, the on-board bed outlet is rated at 400-watts max and 100-watts when moving. Certainly, not enough for anything that produces heat like a hair dryer or coffee pot, but I've powered corded circular saws and such from mine. Like I said, I think you're Pod battery charges while plugged into the Taco.

Well, we took the new pod to San Diego, fom Denver, and back. Our 2002 Tacoma did okay on the flats, but we really lost power on inclines. Hope we made a good decision, we bought a new Tacoma yesterday. I guess retirement must equal new toys! Had a good time, anyway. I think we will enjoy camping &fishing with the pod.

I know we don't have a Tecoma...but w/i the same larger family. We have a 2012 GX 460 v8 and will be picking up a 2012 182G next Tuesday and the dealer said we have no need for the WD but did suggest and we are getting a sway system.
Have fun poding. John

Hope you like your 182G. We love ours. I'm really curious how your towing situation ends up. When you say "sway system" what are you referring to?
We're going to be upgrading to a newer Tacoma soon, and I'm still undecided about a WDH, upgraded suspension, or overload airbags. Thanks!

Doggie: We will be adding an Anti Sway Bar to the unit and hitch reciever. Will let you know after a few trips.
