Yep, I hear of too many people looking for a TV that will just make the grade for towing their trailer. They forget how many people will be riding in the vehicle and how much stuff will be packed in it. They also forget what the real weight of the trailer will be when fully loaded. You know, I'd rather have more than that 10-15% buffer and as pointed out earlier, the 3/4 ton has a beefier braking system among other things.
While not on many people's minds, I'm sure there are plush interiors of vehicle sitting in junk yards that can be used to upgrade a vehicle to the status you want. It just takes timing it right to get one before someone else does or weather takes it's toll.
