WARNING: Under no circumstance should these limitations be

exceeded. Exceeding any vehicle weight rating limitation could

result in serious damage to the vehicle and/or personal injury.

Special loading instructions for owners of pickup trucks and

utility-type vehicles

WARNING: For important information regarding safe operation

of this type of vehicle, see the Preparing to drive your vehicle

section in this chapter.

WARNING: Loaded vehicles, with a higher center of gravity,

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 has the capability to 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.

Calculating the load your vehicle can carry/tow

1. Use the appropriate maximum gross combined weight rating

(GCWR) chart (in the Trailer Towing section) to find the maximum

GCWR for your type engine and rear axle ratio.

2. Weigh your vehicle as you customarily operate the vehicle without

cargo. To obtain correct weights, try taking your vehicle to a

shipping company or an inspection station for trucks.

3. Subtract your loaded vehicle weight from the maximum GCWR on

the following charts. This is the maximum trailer weight your vehicle

can tow and must fall below the maximum shown under maximum

trailer weight on the chart.
