4. The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For
example, if the ‘‘XXX’’ amount
equals 1,400 lbs. and there will be
five 150 lb. passengers in your
vehicle, the amount of available
cargo and luggage load capacity is
650 lbs.
(1,400 － 750 (5 ╳ 150) ＝ 650 lbs.)
5. Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being loaded on
the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo
and luggage load capacity
calculated in Step 4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a
trailer, load from your trailer will be
transferred to your vehicle. Consult
this manual to determine how this
reduces the available cargo and
luggage load capacity of your
vehicle.

In addition, the total weight of the vehicle, all occupants, accessories, cargo, and trailer
tongue load must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). Both are on a label on the driver's doorjamb.
