Arrow Max Trailer Weight Pulled?

Ford's website says 12,500lbs for SRW Crew Cabs, so why am I hearing people pulling much more than that? How much have you pulled?

(Yes I already anticipate the response "Probably because they are DRW" but not everyone)

I always pull just below the maximum recommended by Ford.
Easy for me to do, I just eliminate what I do not need out of the trailer.
Some cannot accomplish that; so…………a few could bee over.
