To check that the weight of the vehicle and
trailer are within the GCWR for the vehicle,
follow these steps:

1. Start with the "curb weight" from the

Trailering Information Label.

2. Add the weight of the trailer loaded with

cargo and ready for the trip.

3. Add the weight of all passengers.
4. Add the weight of all cargo in the

vehicle.

5. Add the weight of hitch hardware such

as a draw bar, ball, load equalizer bars,
or sway bars.

6. Add the weight of any accessories or

aftermarket equipment added to the
vehicle.

The resulting weight cannot exceed the
GCWR value shown on the Trailering
Information Label.

The gross combined weight can also be
confirmed by weighing the truck and trailer
on a public scale. The truck and trailer
should be loaded for the trip with
passengers and cargo.

. When calculating the GVWR

with a trailer attached, the trailer tongue
weight must be included as part of the
weight the vehicle is carrying.

Maximum Trailer Weight Rating

The maximum trailer weight rating is
calculated assuming the tow vehicle has a
driver, a front seat passenger, and all
required trailering equipment. This value
represents the heaviest trailer the vehicle
can tow, but it may be necessary to reduce
the trailer weight to stay within the GCW,
GVWR, maximum trailer tongue load,
or GAWR-RR for the vehicle.

Use the tow rating chart to determine how
much the trailer can weigh, based on the
vehicle model, powertrain and trailering
options.
