Weight Limits
The total trailer weight, gross combination weight and trailer nose weight must be within the prescribed limits in the Trailer Towing-Load Table.
TOTAL TRAILER WEIGHT:
Sum of weights of the trailer and its load.
GROSS COMBINATION WEIGHT:
Sum of total trailer weight and towing vehicle weight; including trailer hitch, vehicle passengers, and vehicle load.
TRAILER NOSE WEIGHT:
The weight exerted on the trailer tongue. It is varied by changing the weight distribution when loading the trailer.
Be aware of the towing load weight differences when towing at high altitudes. For altitudes exceeding 1,000 meter (3,280 ft 10 in), always reduce the towing load by 10% for every 1,000 meter (3,280 ft 10 in) increase in altitude from the load indicated under the gross combination weight heading in the maximum trailer towing-load table. If the determined maximum total towing load weight is exceeded, the engine and other power train parts may be damaged.

Always keep tow loads within specified limits as indicated in the Trailer Towing-Load Table:
Attempting to tow loads greater than those specified is dangerous as it may cause serious handling and performance problems that could result in personal injury or vehicle damage, or both.
Always keep the trailer nose weight within the specified limits in the Trailer Towing-Load Table:
Loading the trailer with more weight in the rear than in the front is dangerous. This could cause loss of vehicle control and an accident.
-
The total trailer weight and nose weight can be determined by weighing the trailer on platform scales at a highway weighing station or a trucking company.
-
Appropriate total trailer weight and nose weight may prevent the danger of trailer sway from crosswinds, rough roads, or other causes.
