Is being a little over GVWR no worse than doing 60 in a 55?

We're struggling between a Lance1985 and a 2285 and to add to that struggle are concerned about our RAM1500 tow capabilities. Many, maybe a majority, are pulling 1985s and 2285s size TTs, 4500 to 500...

Congrats. You have found one of the hot buttons on the forum.

Lots of opinions here, many of which will quote laws which may or may not be accurate, or applicable to your location. I am surprised that they "your insurance coverage will be invalid" crew hasn't yet responded (inaccurate unless you have a written policy exclusion).

Personally, I would make sure to stay at or below the tire and axle ratings.

Good luck, and enjoy the show.
