Also have to remember, when these hulls were built and sold, average tow capacity of the vehicles was probably 3 to 4 thousand pounds. We were a drawtite trailer hitch dealer and 90 percent of what we installed was class 1, 200 lb tongue weight, 2000 lb tow weight. Occasionally a guy would want a class 2, 350 lb tongue 3500 lb tow weight.

Most pick ups came with a step bumper and thats what they towed with.

It kills me that you see all these guys with 2500/3500 diesels pulling 5000lb loads around.

That***8217;s why a working guy who actually needs that capacity can t afford them, only doctors, lawyers and accountants.
