I think it is criminal that manufacturers get away with listing tow limits so absurdly high. The fact that his 1/2 ton truck has a cargo capacity of 1500 pounds is ridiculous. Last time I checked 1500 pounds was 3/4 of a ton but now we are supposed to just ignore that and buy in to the myth that this vehicle can safely tow a 10,000 pound trailer.
Kudos to the OP,(who has left this discussion apparently), for realizing this unlike the many who start threads of "can my F150 haul this monster" and refuse to listen when the crowd overwhelmingly tells them "no".
