"I've towed a approx +14,000 lb utility trailer with the Silverado in
my sig. Up and down very steep dirt roads in the windparks in the
Tehachapi mountains. That Silverado has a GVWR of 6,200 lbs and it was
loaded to approx +7,500 lbs on that trip. "
and you, brother ben, are the core reason for the need of weight limitations but in your case it would probably be better to have them posted on the windshield rather than the door jam. anyone that would drag a 14000# trailer up & down mountain roads with an overloaded 1980 1/2 ton class truck has obviously not learned when "it feels right & when it doesn't"!
