And a decision cannot be about what other people do. There are many, MANY drivers hauling unsafely. Everyone has to make a decision about how much risk they are willing to assume for their family.

The good thing about math is that it doesn't lie. The numbers are the numbers. There's over weight and there's WAY over weight. OR, there's not over weight, which means you have a truck properly rated for the trailer you want to pull. But these are the decisions that everyone has to make based on budget, experience, risk, etc.

The wise, safe thing to do is to either buy a trailer that your truck can safely pull or buy a truck that can safely pull your trailer.

Be safe...
