Whoever is down voting me should actually go out and check what the GVWR of their vehicle is and the curb weight + fuel and passengers. It's surprisingly low even for a full sized SUV unless you own a body on frame SUV. Sure you can exceed the GVWR but you are potentially endangering others on the road with increased braking distances and poor handling.

You should look up those values on SUVs vs. regular older cars. I can almost guarantee that many older cars allowed you to transport more than most modern SUVs.
