Yep, the salesman telling you that you can pull what he's trying to sell, surely knows better than the engineer setting the ratings. :S
Fact is most pickups never do any heavy hauling or towing...the proverbial grocery getter. That's how they survive.
If you are over by 100lbs, will the axle instantly snap in half...probably not but it's not a good situation.
I don’t listen to salesman. Would have to buy something from a dealer first…lol.
But again, out comes the vague supposition.
Of course if you never haul anything, your axle and springs should figuratively last forever…
But the couple dozen half tons I’ve put a lot of hard miles on, the thousands that my employers have used in heavy construction and the millions that have survived hard work everywhere else might just maybe say different.
But I’m sure you have some experience to back up your claim? Lol
Sorry for the miscommunication...I was including you with the salesmen saying the engineers don't know what they are doing.
