Practical tow capacities not the extremes or limits?

Let's make sure the OP keeps in mind there is a difference between what it can pull and how much cargo it can carry.

My F-150 can pull 9500 lbs. but it's max cargo capacity is only 1411 lbs. Since my family and gear weigh close to 700 lbs. I can only carry about 700 lbs. of tongue weight. That limits me to a loaded a TT weight of about 6000 lbs.
