Weight of the Trailer
How heavy can a trailer safely be?
Speed, altitude, road grades,
outside temperature, the dimensions
of the front of the trailer, special
equipment, and the amount of
tongue weight the vehicle can carrymust be considered. See
“Weight of
the Trailer Tongue” later in this
section.
Maximum trailer weight is calculated
assuming only the driver is in the
tow vehicle and it has all the
required trailering equipment. The
weight of additional optional
equipment, passengers, and cargo in the tow vehicle must be
subtracted from the maximum trailer
weight.
Use the following chart to determine
how much the vehicle can weigh,
based upon the vehicle model and
options.
