There is no liability issues on the dealers part for selling us any size trailer.
I sure wouldn't want a saleseman that didn't know my states size and weight regulation telling me what size trailer for my truck I need.
A good attorney would eat a dealer alive if they also sold the hitch, installed it, then sold a trailer to be used on that truck that was way over-speck for the truck. =Especially= if they watched it being towed off the lot. Their lack of care could be construed as "implied suitability", especially if it were brought up, discussed and witnessed. Sounds like the Lazy Days guys are doing a proper job, though I'd argue about a sliding hitch requirement for a short bed.

Please quote your source, it must have happened for you to be so sure it will happen in the future. Nothing on Google or Lexus/Nexus to prove your point. I think it is just your opinion, of something that could. But in my opinion very unlikely to happen. I prefer to be more concerned with what is likely to happen.
