So we were at an RV show and I was poking around a bit and started to look at the weight stickers. found some "1/2 ton towable" TT`s with dry weights starting at 8k lbs, one was 8700lbs!!! now, I`m no...

And there are also plenty that wouldn't have enough leftover capacity for the family with 1225 lb of tongue weight, and come from the factory with receivers that won't handle it, and axle ratios that are unsuitable for pulling 10K down the road. I'm with the OP--you need to know your TV, because the manufacturers and salesmen don't have a clue in most cases.
Not even that...salesman will happily LIE TO YOUR FACE to get an extra three cents in their commission. If doing so means you are grossly overloaded...well, that's not their problem!
