What is Towing Capacity of 2014 Toyota Camry V6
Question:
I have a 14 Camry v6 and would like to know if I can tow my 14foot aluminum Tracker boat? Ive seen my buddy two his boat with a 90s Honda Accord but like to make sure if my car is up to it for the long run. I would tow it about 3hrs round trip a day maybe 2 - 3 times a month. Thanks

I looked up the towing capacity of your 2014 Toyota Camry with a V6 and it can tow up to 1,225 lbs so as long as the Tracker boat and trailer weighs less than that you'd be fine.
You'll need a few things to complete your towing setup. First you'll need a hitch and for that I recommend the Draw Tite part # 36540 as it has plenty of towing capacity and has the shortest install time of the options available. I attached an install video as well.
Then for trailer wiring the best option is the Tekonsha kit part # 118405 which installs easily and has the most reliable converter box of all of the kits we have for your vehicle.
For a ball mount you'll need the part # 36071 and for balls part # 19258 for a 2 inch ball or part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.
