Sorry to rain on your parade, but I'll bet you that will not have a 5,000 to 6,000 towing capacity. Partially because it is lowered and the other part due to the 6-speed manual tranny. Yes the S only weighs 3,000 pounds, but you have to add in a trailer, 1,000+ pounds and remember that many people who tow will tell ya you don't want to tow at the maximum rated capacity of a vehicle. For myself I will not exceed ~75% of a vehicle's rating, so a vehicle rated at 5,000 pounds is good for 4,000 pounds and less.
But yes, it does have a good look if you like slammed trucks and Toyota has a ton of experience in the small truck market. I love pickups!!!

Actually I dont' think it's lowered.. the body kit inserts cover the wheel gap.
The Tacoma X-Runner sits low to the ground (one full inch lower than the standard 2WD Tacoma frame) and features ground effects body paneling around the entire vehicle to give it a low and wide look.
