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?

I think 80% is a good idea. It gives you some slack for carrying water, food, parts, tools, etc,
etc. It's simply a safety margin that is used by a lot of trailer pullers.

Hummm... I had the impression that you all were suggesting 80% as a
loaded weight...
