The 24' toy hauler has rolled us across the scales at 22k w/ truck, gear, and passengers a couple times.

Thankfully don't do that often ... hard on the nerves in some of the curves.

My dad hauls our 40 ft 5th wheel with his 06 Mega Cab CTD. I think it weights about 15,000 lbs. dry. The truck pulls it really well.

Not sure whether you want to consider it pulling or towing, but I've pulled my 98 eclipse, my 86 firebird, my old 93 camaro, and my mom's 02 pt cruiser multiple times
