it can tow 8,000 lbs. You may have made your own assumptions, and now you are not satisfied with your purchase, that's understandable... but no manufacturer is going to state a number 'LESS' than what the hitch manufacturer states. Sorry... maybe it'll still work for you - maybe the hitch manufacturer can shed some light on it.

Well this has certainly been an interesting thread. However you slice it, Thor could have done a better job in the advertising. The onus is on them not me. It is their product and they apparently intended to create a grey area as it was good for their marketing.
As to the 500-lb tongue weight, that is not disclosed in any marketing or specification. It is on a hitch label.
My unit is a Four Winds 23U which has a GVCWR of 22,000-lb and a fully loaded weight of 10,600-lb so it has the tow capacity of 11,400-lb.
