Yeah, I watched that P.O.S. They focused on cutesy, girley, mini-SUVs e.g Explorer and Honda CRV, not on real trucks, so it should not be surprising to anyone that these things do not have big payload capacities. What kind of a dumbass do you have to be not to know that vehicles and tires are designed for certain maximum weights, or that placing heavy loads on the roof will not move the c.g. higher. Duhhhhh. Every vehicle sold in this coutry has the GVWR on a sticker right on the door jamb. I'm surprised the network news show didn't place am incindiary bomb in the gas tank . . . this time. At some point folks have just got to start taking responsibility for their own actions and stop trying to blame manufacturers. If there were an actual defect I'd be the first to holler, but, come on, as they say on 20/20, "GIVE ME A BREAK!"
