+1. I see that all of the time here: "hey, look, I've got a new 1/2 ton and I can haul anything!" Typically you see these morons on the side of the road with a huge boat/trailer hooked up and the driveshaft laying on the ground. Most trucks just aren't mean to safely pull that kind of weight. Or, more importantly, to handle that size of weight on the road. There's another thing I see all of the time: "Gee, that wind is creating quite a wobble ... I'll just hit the brakes ... AHHHHHHH!"
