Tag XL question

I'm looking at the TAG XL. What is needed to tow an XL compared to a TAB 400? - like trailer brakes or other additions? Given you have a tow vehicle. Thanks I'm new to the XL.

    compared to a T@B? what is needed is less. Any decent crossover will tow it

    So I don't need trailer brakes or sway to tow a T@G? That is good to know. Will I be able to move the T@G around by myself when solo camping? I'm about 5'5" and 125 lbs.

    The TAG will come w/ electric brakes, you'll need a brake controller; our tag XL Boondock w/ battery/Propane was right at 1700 lbs, I called & confirmed...I tow w/ a 6 cyl. Tacoma, tow package was included, I personally wouldn't pull w/out one, especially around here in Va. w/ the various up/down terrain, but that's just me...moving it around by yourself MAY be a struggle depending on the surface, you could try moving one where you're looking to possibly buy

    125 pounds will move it around on cement and smooth dirt, chocks are mandatory when hand rotating

    The new T@G may have bakes. Out 2017 does not.

    I purchased a 2020 T@g XL (not Boondock) model. It has electric trailer brakes. I simply added a brake controller and had my Subaru Outback wired for the 7 pin harness to allow trailer braking and T@g battery charging when towing. I was advised by dealer not to add anti-sway system.
