“Can haul” and “can haul safely” are different.

She was loading bags of gravel into a Toyota Corolla. Sure, it’ll drive, but will it brake?

If she should crash into something there’s also a huge difference in having a heavy passenger wearing a seat belt and loading the back seats with bags of gravel.

This right here. Towing capacity is “will it go” and payload capacity is “will it stop” One should try not to go over on either.
