The best way to confirm that all
loads are within limits is to check
them at a public scale (see page

).

Add the weight of your trailer (as
quoted by the manufacturer) with
everything in or on the trailer. Then
check the tables on page

to

make sure you do not exceed the
limit for your conditions.

To help ensure a safe drive to a scale,
or if you cannot get to a public scale,
we recommend that you estimate
your total trailer weight and tongue
load as described.

The maximum

allowable weight of the vehicle, all
occupants, all accessories, all cargo,
and the tongue load is 6,050 lbs
(2,745 kg).

The GCWR must be reduced 2
percent for every 1,000 feet (305
meters) of elevation.

The maximum

allowable weight of the fully loaded
vehicle and trailer is 10,088 lbs
(4,575 kg) with the proper hitch.

The maximum

allowable weight on the vehicle axles
is 3,105 lbs (1,410 kg) on the front
axle, and 3,245 lbs (1,475 kg) on the
rear axle.
