Default Towing again....
In article ,
says...

So, someone here said something about 80%. Was that "80% of the rated
towing weight is where you should stop loading". Do I assume that the
"rated" towing is bulked up for sales as opposed to buffered for safety,
is that what you all are saying?

You never load something to it's ultimate capacity. Safety factor is
your friend.
