Towing capacities aren't realistic, completely unachievable

Yes!!! Times have indeed changed! I was telling my wife of this thread. She told me about her first home (1st marriage). Her father in law towed a 8x 42 (yes pretty small) mobile home ( late 50’s early ‘60’s) with all furnishings from Ft. Pierre, SD. to Kemmerer, Wy. with a 3/4 ton Chevy ( don’t know if he had an equalizing hitch )......About 700 miles (Pre-interstate). Must have had better trucks and tires back then.....or better drivers! ;)
