Towing a Trailer
Your vehicle can pull a trailer as well as carry cargo, provided you
follow the load limits and guidelines below.
There are two main types of limits that apply to towing a trailer:
The tongue load also affects the total weight you can carry in the
vehicle and the cargo bed. See “Maximum weight capacity” on
page 77.
Total Trailer Weight
Check the weight of a fully loaded trailer or estimate the total by
adding the weight of the trailer (as quoted by the trailer maker) with
the weight of all items placed in or on the trailer.
Towing Limits
Maximum total trailer weight = 1,500 lb (680 kg)
This includes the weight of the trailer and everything in it or on it.
Maximum tongue load = 150 lb (68 kg)
The weight that the fully loaded trailer places on the tongue.
