Depends on what circles you run in. Go to a campground or boat launch
sometime and check out how many guys are using 2500s to tow travel
trailers or boats that, on paper, a 1500 could handle.
Then there's the flip side, the idiots who think their 8500 pound
rating means they can buy a 7500 pound (dry) trailer, hitch it up,
toss in the wife, kids, 2 dogs, clothes, gas and food for a week, etc.
and be safe.
