Maximum trailer weight is calculated assuming the
driver and one passenger are in the towing vehicle and it
has all the required trailering equipment. The weight of
additional equipment, passengers and cargo in the
towing vehicle must be subtracted from the above
maximum trailer weights.
You can ask your dealer for our trailering information or
advice, or you can write us at the address listed in your
Warranty and Owner Assistance Information Booklet.

Weight of the Trailer Tongue
The tongue load (A) of any trailer is an important
weight to measure because it affects the total or 
gross weight of your vehicle. The Gross Vehicle 
Weight (GVW) includes the curb weight of the vehicle,
any cargo you may carry in it, and the people who will
be riding in the vehicle. And if you will tow a trailer,
you must add the tongue load to the GVW because your
vehicle will be carrying that weight, too. See “Loading 
Your Vehicle” in the Index for more information about
your vehicle’s maximum load capacity.
If you’re using your platform hitch as a weight
-
carrying
hitch, the trailer tongue (A) should weigh 10 percent of
the total loaded trailer weight (B). If you’re using your
platform hitch as a weight
-
distributing hitch, the trailer
tongue (A) should weigh 12 percent of the total loaded
trailer weight (B).
