Dont understand how you can justify a 10% over number? The manufacturers certify to the federal government that their vehicle meets all the applicable standards as to acceleration, handling, braking and safety at the weight number stated on the federal sticker. While there is no federal laws regarding exceeding the numbers, it is common sense to assume that the manufacturer knows at least enough to make a decent judgment call on the weight they have posted.
It really astounds me how many people justify overloading by saying it pulls fine. When it is ultimately so simple to get the right tool for the job. Whether that means a screwdriver or a pickup truck.
