The tow numbers probably reflect the short wheelbase - even with electronics you can't keep up with it in the western wind. Ten miles to the equipment rental place you could white knuckle cheat it.
For real I know I won’t be trying it haha, sounds terrifying

Its going to be a pathetic 3500lb in an “SUV”.
"Class is Medium Traditional Utility " from Ford. Also, look at the SAE standard that's used to determine GCWR. It has variables that a short wheel base off-road capable vehicle will just naturally suck at like the amount of allowable sway when braking and timed reverse launches up a steep (like 25% I think?) incline with the weight to be certified which might also have to be on that same 100 degree day that the Dam Run has to be accomplished. It sucks for the people buying an off-road capable vehicle to misuse as a tow rig, but it ensures reliable comparisons and surety that you can tow up to that GCWR which includes two 150lb people.

Or it is a crack in the windshield. If they were that sloppy for the one pic, I'd expect more for the other two.

Nah... it's clearly a dead pigeon with a piece of string or rope tied to its leg.

If I say I work for the Audobon society, you'll just have to accept it as fact that tgis is a pigeon. ? ? ?

It's always fun, when someone uses their job to back-up their opinion, only to have an average Joe debunk the pro.

Not everyone is good at their job, but we all think we are anyway. I know, I'm a pro.

I'm a professional pigeon roper. I know a dead roped-pigeon, when I see one. All this talk of photoshop and dinged windshields... I mean... I can't even!

The Bronco is an off road specialist though . If you want a SUV that tows more , there are other options .
Please point me to the one that I can take the doors and/or roof off of?

or honestly one that looks decent. hard body lines. some actual style. all the rest look like their clones in the same vehicle class.

Graphic design =/= graphic forensics
I am a graphic designer. This is not an actual "not equals" sign.

Clear gaps visible where a slash was Photoshopped over an equals sign. Nice try. Can't fool us.

Bed looks weird from directly behind, and feel like the amount of time I highway I would regret the solid front axle.
