Giving them the benefit of the doubt, maybe they are high tailing away from somewhere or someone under duress and didn't have a choice? Like trying to hide from the tax man, or soon to be ex in-laws. It happens, I've been told.
But it is still extremely unsafe, whatever reason they had.
The weight and HP don’t set off the alarm for me so much as the disparity in wheelbases.
My MIL put a 33’ travel trailer and the 90 K5 Blazer she was towing it with on their roofs on a Utah interstate. Sure was a sweet Blazer right up to that point though.

My trailer is right at the limits of what I would wanna tow with my GX. If I do use the GX to to I dont take it on the open freeway. Theres too many downsides: wheelbase, gas tank size, power, etc.
The GX is pretty heavy and has very stout sway bars so its pretty stable for its size. Its actually more comfortable on twisty mountain passes than my F150
