Sam,
I know storage is a problem for you. Just throwing this out there.
Have you looked at Harbor freight tools? They have a 4x8 utility trailer that folds in half. Its about $300 & doesn't take up alot of space when your not using it.
If not, then the Nissan frontier is also a good choice for a mid size pick up.

thanks evan. i have looked at those but a truck would just be that much better overall for hauling all the stuff. plus, i can dump the entire thing in the back, load a bunch of stuff in, then carry it out and not have to deal with a trailer. we'll see though.
Definitely go with the truck Sam - it will make your life so much easier. Plus if you sneak into certain places, the trailer won't give you away when you find a stealthy parking spot. I used to tow my aircraft carrier (nowhere near as nice a setup as yours - had no idea what I was doing when I built it) behind a Nissan maxima so I know where you are coming from. I towed that thing all the way to Florida 
A four banger taco will easily be able to tow a small boat like a cartopper. Also one thing to keep in mind in the v6 taco gets about the same mpg as my v8 tundra. Which is not good. My wife has a fj cruiser with the same engine as thw taco and it gets about 15 mpg on average. So if yoy dont need the extra power get a four banger
