WARNING: Loaded vehicles may handle differently than
unloaded vehicles. Extra precautions, such as slower speeds and
increased stopping distance, should be taken when driving a heavily
loaded vehicle.
Your vehicle can haul more cargo and people than most passenger cars.
Depending upon the type and placement of the load, hauling cargo and
people may raise the center of gravity of the vehicle.
TRAILER TOWING
Your vehicle may tow a class I, II or III trailer provided the maximum
trailer weight is less than or equal to the maximum trailer weight listed
for your engine and rear axle ratio on the following chart:

For high altitude operation reduce GCW by 2% per 1,000 ft. (300
meters) elevation. To determine the maximum trailer weight designed
for your particular vehicle as equipped, follow the section Calculating
the load your vehicle can carry/tow earlier in this chapter.
