TRAILER TOWING WEIGHTS (MAXIMUM TRAILER WEIGHT RATINGS)
The following chart provides the maximum trailer weight ratings towable for your given drivetrain.
NOTE:
The trailer tongue weight must be considered
as part of the combined weight of occupants
and cargo, and should never exceed the weight
referenced on the Tire and Loading Information
placard.
VEHICLE LOADING CHART
Follow these steps to determine the total weight
the vehicle can carry:
1. Determine the cargo capacity of your
vehicle.
Load Capacity = GVWR – Curb (weight of
vehicle full fluids NO occupants).
2. Determine occupant count.
For calculation purposes, average weight
of an occupant is 150 lb (68 kg).
EXAMPLE:
GVWR = 6,005 lb (2,723 kg)
CURB = 4,500 lb (2,041 kg)
Load Capacity = GVWR – CURB = 6,005 lb
(2,723 kg) - 4,500 lb (2,041 kg) = 1,505 lb
(682 kg)
4 Occupants (at 150 lbs [68 kg]) + Max Trailer =
1,505 lb (682 kg) – 600 lb (272 kg)
(4 x 150 lb [68 kg]) – 360 lb (163 kg) (10%
of 3,600 lb [1,632 kg]) = 545 lb (247 kg) of
cargo in vehicle
