available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For example,
if the

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 ꭦ 150) = 650 lbs.)

safely exceed the available cargo and
luggage load capacity calculated in
Step 4.
