That's why I asked the question I did. When I was growing up we personally had a camper with a bumper fail due to a bike rack.
However, you have just as many folks who say they had one fail, as folks who put a generator or whatnot on one for years and no problems. I wouldn't DREAM of doing ANYTHING without beefing up the welds though.
It sure stinks though that you'd never know until it was too late. I think, for me, that's the biggest con.
