    Honestly, just about any modern vehicle is a pig in stock form, let alone modded.

    Imagine what fully built tacos with plate front bumpers, high clearance bumpers w/ swing out rear tire carriers, and lots of extra gas cans weigh. This is crazy. I have roof rack, sliders, + bedrack/RTT and I bet I'm nearing the edge already.

    *edit* do you have to weigh-in for your state registration or something?

    Yep thats my point. I added up my weight from aftermarket manufacturers and I though I was only about +600 lbs but real world is different. I was looking to get a small camper and wanted to see how much I can tow. I saw the #s and thought.. i just saved $35k from buying that Airstream Basecamp

    Ive read a few states can ticket you for towing over GVWR. If you dont tow shouldnt be a (legal) problem
