Towing a 3500 pound trailer with a 3500 pound capacity tow vehicle offers no margin. Add on outside temperature, hills and extra cargo we all tend to take when camping and well things tend to get exceeded fairly quick.

Just my honest opinion.
Agree completely. My TV is rated at 6500# because I like having the extra margin for mountain passes, merging etc..... I also moved from the 2720SL to the 3326K for the space and extra axle for load capacity.
