weight of the driver and
passengers that will be
riding in your vehicle.
3.Subtract the combined
weight of the driver and
passengers from

equals the available
amount of cargo and

For example, if the
"XXX" amount equals
1400 lbs. and there will
be five 150 lb
passengers in your
vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and
luggage load capacity is
650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x
150) = 650 lbs.)
5.Determine the combined
weight of luggage and
cargo being loaded on
the vehicle. That weight
may not safely exceed
the available cargo and
luggage load capacity
calculated in Step 4.
6.If your vehicle will be
towing a trailer, load
from your trailer will be
transferred to your
vehicle. Consult this
manual to determine
how this reduces the
available cargo and
luggage load capacity of
your vehicle.”
