Question anyone being naughty and towing?

i know we are not supposed to, but the third gen crew are doing it! and i found a hitch for our car... AND i did do a big 1500 mile trip with a FULL car... like 4 adults, ski's on top, and our gear... MASHED into the car... we must have weighed over a 800 lbs. so why couldn't we tow about 6? anyone have real life experince? brakes are great, with a 5spd the pickup is decent, the body seems pretty solid... i think i'm gonna try unless someone posts that they lost the rear half of their car while climbing a hill er something.

on the trip, the car did handle pretty funkified!
