I agree with this! As you know the 3790/3791 is an exception to the rule. Just about every fiver has a medium to large front storage basement, so it must be anticipated that most of the weight is allocated to that area. Of course any scenario of overloading is a possibility, so common sense comes into play. I think I read somewhere that the rear tray is rated at about 800 lbs., but I can't say where I saw that. Balancing is the key in every case.
