NOTES:
Note that all the payload and Max Trail weights are ESTIMATED values.
1. Payload is rounded down to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR - Curb Wt.
2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded down to the nearest 50 lbs.
Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR - Curb wt. -150 lbs. (allowance for driver) - 20 lbs. (variation allowance)
3. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III
(the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. Additionally, the GAWR's and GVWR's should never be
exceeded.
4. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-carrying hitch. A weight distributing system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.

NOTES:
Note that all the payload and Max Trail weights are ESTIMATED values.
1. Payload is rounded down to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR - Curb Wt.
2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded down to the nearest 50 lbs.
Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR - Curb wt. -150 lbs. (allowance for driver) - 20 lbs. (variation allowance)
3. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III
(the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. Additionally, the GAWR's and GVWR's should never be
exceeded.
4. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-carrying hitch. A weight distributing system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.

NOTES:
Note that all the payload and Max Trail weights are ESTIMATED values.
1. Payload is rounded down to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR - Curb Wt.
2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded down to the nearest 50 lbs.
Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR - Curb wt. -150 lbs. (allowance for driver) - 20 lbs. (variation allowance)
3. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III
(the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. Additionally, the GAWR's and GVWR's should never be
exceeded.
4. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-carrying hitch. A weight distributing system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.

NOTES:
Note that all the payload and Max Trail weights are ESTIMATED values.
1. Payload is rounded down to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR - Curb Wt.
2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded down to the nearest 50 lbs.
Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR - Curb wt. -150 lbs. (allowance for driver) - 20 lbs. (variation allowance)
3. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III
(the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. Additionally, the GAWR's and GVWR's should never be
exceeded.
4. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-carrying hitch. A weight distributing system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.

NOTES:
Note that all the payload and Max Trail weights are ESTIMATED values.
1. Payload is rounded down to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR - Curb Wt.
2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded down to the nearest 50 lbs.
Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR - Curb wt. -150 lbs. (allowance for driver) - 20 lbs. (variation allowance)
3. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III
(the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. Additionally, the GAWR's and GVWR's should never be
exceeded.
4. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-carrying hitch. A weight distributing system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.

NOTES:
Note that all the payload and Max Trail weights are ESTIMATED values.
1. Payload is rounded down to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR - Curb Wt.
2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded down to the nearest 50 lbs.
Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR - Curb wt. -150 lbs. (allowance for driver) - 20 lbs. (variation allowance)
3. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III
(the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. Additionally, the GAWR's and GVWR's should never be
exceeded.
4. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-carrying hitch. A weight distributing system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.

NOTES:
Note that all the payload and Max Trail weights are ESTIMATED values.
1. Payload is rounded to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR - Curb Wt.
2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded to the nearest 50 lbs.
Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR - Curb wt. -150 lbs. (allowance for driver)
3. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III (the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver
hitch) to 1,200 pounds. Additionally, the GAWRs and GVWRs should never be exceeded.
4. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-carrying hitch. A weight distributing system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds. A fifth-wheel or gooseneck hitch is required for trailers over 12,000
pounds.

Note that all the payload and Max Trail weights are ESTIMATED values.
1. Payload is rounded to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR - Curb Wt.
2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded to the nearest 50 lbs.
Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR - Curb wt. -150 lbs. (allowance for driver)
3. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III (the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to
1,200 pounds. Additionally, the GAWRs and GVWRs should never be exceeded.
4. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-carrying hitch. A weight distributing system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds. A fifth-wheel or gooseneck hitch is required for trailers over 12,000 pounds.

NOTES:
1. All weights in pounds. Payload is rounded to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR -­‐ Base Wt. 2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded to the nearest 50 lbs. Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR -­‐ Curb wt. -­‐ 150 lbs. (allowance for driver). 3. All Passengers, OpRons , Trailering Equipment and Vehicle CompleRon weights are not considered in this chart. Max Trailer weight should be reduced by the applicaRon of any of these items.*
4. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III (the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. This requirement overrides any recommended GTW raRng, between 10 percent and 15 percent of gross trailer weight (GTW).*
5. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-­‐carrying hitch. A weight distribuRng system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.*
6. For trailers over 10,000 lbs must use 5th wheel or gooseneck.*
7. GAWRs and GVWRs should never be exceeded. Payload and maximum trailer weight are mutually exclusive.
8. OpRonal GVWR (sales code Z4B). To determine your vehicle's GVWR , please check the cerRficaRon label located on the inside (shut face) of the driver side (le` front) door.

NOTES:
1. All weights in pounds. Payload is rounded to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR -­‐ Base Wt. 2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded to the nearest 50 lbs. Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR -­‐ Curb wt. -­‐ 150 lbs. (allowance for driver). 3. All Passengers, OpRons , Trailering Equipment and Vehicle CompleRon weights are not considered in this chart. Max Trailer weight should be reduced by the applicaRon of any of these items.*
4. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III (the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. This requirem ent overrides any recommended GTW raRng, between 10 percent and 15 percent of gross trailer weight (GTW).*
5. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-­‐carrying hitch. A weight distribuRng system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.*
6. For trailers over 10,000 lbs must use 5th wheel or gooseneck.*
7. GAWRs and GVWRs should never be exceeded. Payload and maximum trailer weight are mutually exclusive.
8. OpRonal GVWR (sales code Z4B). To determine your vehicle's GVWR , please check the cerRficaRon label located on the inside (shut face) of the driver side (le` front) door.
* Refer to SAE spec. J2807 for more informaRon.

NOTES:
1. All weights in pounds. Payload is rounded to the nearest 10 lbs. Payload = GVWR -­‐ Base Wt. 2. Maximum trailer weights are rounded to the nearest 50 lbs. Maximum Trailer Weight = GCWR -­‐ Curb wt. -­‐ 150 lbs. (allowance for driver). 3. All Passengers, OpRons , Trailering Equipment and Vehicle CompleRon weights are not considered in this chart. Max Trailer weight should be reduced by the applicaRon of any of these items.*
4. The recommended tongue weight is between 10 percent and 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. However, the maximum tongue weight on Class III (the bumper ball) is limited to 500 pounds, and Class IV (the receiver hitch) to 1,045 pounds. This requirem ent overrides any recommended GTW raRng, between 10 percent and 15 percent of gross trailer weight (GTW).*
5. The maximum trailer weight is 5,000 pounds for a weight-­‐carrying hitch. A weight distribuRng system is recommended for trailers over 5,000 pounds.*
6. For trailers over 10,000 lbs must use 5th wheel or gooseneck.*
7. GAWRs and GVWRs should never be exceeded. Payload and maximum trailer weight are mutually exclusive.
8. OpRonal GVWR (sales code Z4B). To determine your vehicle's GVWR , please check the cerRficaRon label located on the inside (shut face) of the driver side (le` front) door.
* Refer to SAE spec. J2807 for more informaRon.
