GCW (Gross Combined Weight)
– is the weight of the loaded vehicle
(GVW) plus the weight of the fully loaded trailer.
GCWR (Gross Combined Weight Rating)
– is the maximum allowable
weight of the vehicle and the loaded trailer – including all cargo and
passengers – that the vehicle can handle without risking damage.
(Important: The towing vehicles’ braking system is rated for operation at
GVWR, not at GCWR. Separate functional brakes should be used for safe
control of towed vehicles and for trailers where the GCW of the towing
vehicle plus the trailer exceed the GVWR of the towing vehicle.
The
GCW must never exceed the GCWR.
Maximum Loaded Trailer Weight
– is the highest possible weight of a
fully loaded trailer the vehicle can tow. It assumes a vehicle with only
mandatory options, no cargo (internal or external), a tongue load of
10–15% (conventional trailer), and driver only (150 lb. [68 kg]).
Consult
your authorized dealer (or the
RV and Trailer Towing Guide
provided by your authorized dealer) for more detailed
information.
WARNING:
Do not exceed the GVWR or the GAWR specified on
the Safety Compliance Certification Label.
WARNING:
Do not use replacement tires with lower load
carrying capacities than the original tires because they may
lower the vehicle’s GVWR and GAWR limitations. Replacement tires
with a higher limit than the original tires do not increase the GVWR
and GAWR limitations.
WARNING:
Exceeding any vehicle weight rating limitation could
result in serious damage to the vehicle and/or personal injury.
