Refer to local laws for maximum trailer towing speeds.
NOTE: The trailer tongue weight must be considered as
part of the combined weight of occupants and cargo, and
should never exceed the weight referenced on the Tire and
Loading Information placard. Refer to “Tires” in “Servicing
And Maintenance” for further information. The addition of
passengers and cargo may require reducing trailer tongue
load and Gross Trailer Weight (GTW). Redistributing cargo
(to the trailer) may be necessary to avoid exceeding Rear
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) of 3,700 lbs (1,678 kg).
