I'm a firm believer in sticking to a vehicle's stated carrying and towing capacities, as I've seen what happens when you don't firsthand. It is, in fact, not a good idea as you'll likely end up breaking something in such a way, the only word to describe the inevitable situation is "catastrophe." However, when you're out in the middle of nowhere. When cell reception is nonexistent.
