Note: Certain states require electric
trailer brakes for trailers over a specified
weight. Be sure to check state
regulations for this specified weight. The
maximum trailer weights listed may be
limited to this specified weight, as the
vehicle’s electrical system may not
include the wiring connector needed to
activate electric trailer brakes.
Your vehicle may tow a trailer provided
the maximum trailer weight is less than
or equal to the maximum trailer weight
listed for your vehicle configuration on
the following chart.
To calculate the maximum loaded trailer
weight for your vehicle:
1. Start with the gross combined weight
rating for your vehicle model and
axle ratio. See the following chart.
2. Subtract all of the following that
apply to your vehicle:
•
Vehicle curb weight
•
Hitch hardware weight, such as a
draw bar, ball, locks or weight
distributing
•
Driver weight
•
Passenger(s) weight
•
Payload, cargo and luggage
weight
•
Aftermarket equipment weight.
3. This equals the maximum loaded
trailer weight for this combination.
Note: The trailer tongue load figures
into the payload for your vehicle.
Reduce the total payload by the final
trailer tongue weight.
Consult an authorized dealer to
determine the maximum trailer weight
allowed for your vehicle if you are not
sure.
