I'm not saying it's a smart or good idea to overload out trucks, but I know they can take it. I've had over 2500lbs of aluminum railing in the bed of my truck, plus pulling a 14' x 8' dump trailer + 3' of frame... Trailer had 2 steel window racks on it, loaded and multiple other types if siding etc..

Eh, it handled it just fine. I wouldn't go over recommended specs for towing but for hauling I've done it tons of times with my trucks and never had an ill effects.
