Towing Limits Document

I created the attached document to help educate RVers on the question of towing capacity. Would appreciate any feedback on how it could be improved.
Thanks.

Thank you for sharing that....could be very useful for those that have no idea how to work the numbers to do a pass/fail on their rigs.

Excessive payload capacity is a wonderful thing

You need to post this on the Crossroads forum!
Just reading there this morning that there are several on that forum hauling various sizes of 5th wheels with their "F150s with upgraded LT tires & airbags", all stating that the posted payload is all bull hockey & all the other numbers posted being only CYA for the manufacturer & there's absolutely no way, without getting banished, to try to inform any of them otherwise.
