Tow Capacity Numbers Question

I disagree.. There is a weak link on the truck somewhere.. Maybe tires.. Post those specs from sidewall..

And could be performance related

Like at GCWR, on max incline, at max altitude, at max humidity...etc
and at a dead stop...the ability to get it going again and again...don't
know how many times the specification requires

Another is longevity. Both warranty and liability.

Finally, it's ability to manhandle the GCWR at whatever the worst
conditions specified. Not the above from a dead stop, but going max
specified speed (recommendations all over the glove box manual) and
be able to stop the GCWR to specification (distance) at max conditions

Stuff like that...that we on the outside of the design team will never
know...
