Secure all items so they cannot

fly forward and injure you or

your passengers if you brake

hard, hit an obstacle, or are

involved in a collision.

If you want to put cargo on the

roof, use a roof rack, secure all

items, and make sure the cargo

does not exceed 200 pounds.

Towing a Trailer

You may be able to safely tow a

lightweight trailer (such as a

motorcycle trailer or small tent

trailer) off-road if you follow

these guidelines:

Do not exceed a trailer weight

of 1,000 pounds (including

cargo) or a tongue weight of

100 pounds. (Tongue weight

should be about 10% of the

trailer weight.)

Try to stay on smooth, level

dirt roads, and avoid driving in

hilly terrain.
Allow extra room for starting,

stopping, and turning.
Slow down if you encounter

bumps or other obstacles.

Extra Equipment and Supplies

We strongly recommend that you

DO NOT carry extra fuel. Gasoline

is highly flammable and

explosive. It cannot be safely

carried inside the vehicle or

strapped to the top or rear. The

best thing to do is fill up your tank

before you leave pavement.
