Have quite a few friends with them!...ALL EXCEED the MAX tow/Gross combined rating of the H2.  ...You must have one of those special Light Weight units!  ...I'd be very curious to know the REAL numbers?  ...Even the hyperlite (stock empty) is 1000# over!

Well not ALL toy haulers exceed the tow rating. Takes a little time doing research and going to the RV dealer.
No ,I never said my hauler was light. Empty it is under the limits printed by the manufacture. Yes, loaded with all my stuff it is over the printed limit. I didnt post talking about how much the H2 would pull. Will it pull the hauler? HELL YES ,it will pull it 80+MPH thru the W.V. hills. Are there other vehicles better at towing? HELL YES.
No ,I have not had any problems. Iam an HVAC mechanic. Everything will eventually break or wear out. If you work it harder it will wear out faster. When it breaks I will fix it. Just like all the other equipment I fix every day.
I was just posting my trailer not looking for a fight.

Re: Anyone towing a trailer?
I've towed everything from a Jeep to go wheeling (wheeled with the Jeep and towed it back home too), to 10K lbs of equipment, to a trailer load of toys. For where my truck has been and the abuse it's taken, for it to be able to also reliably make those drags comfortably, there is simply no replacement for an H2.
Name one other vehicle that will haul 5 in leather, heated seat, satellite radio, comfort and tow 3K lbs over what the manufacturer suggests without breaking and constantly hit harder than moderate off-road trails that few other stock vehicles can do.
