(a) Estimated Trailer Tow Ratings are for ST models.
Ratings for SLT and Laramie models are approximately 100 lbs. less.
(b) GCWR is the maximum allowable combined weight of loaded truck
and trailer. It includes the weight of passengers, cargo and fuel
in the truck and cargo in the trailer.
(c) Max. Trailer is the maximum allowable weight of the trailer and
its cargo. Max. Trailer = GCWR minus curb weight of truck minus 150
pounds allowance for driver and must be further decreased by the weight
of optional equipment, trailer hitch, cargo, and passengers. Maximum
trailer weights shown are rounded to the nearest 50 pounds. Recommended
tongue weight is 10 to 15 percent of loaded trailer weight, but must
not exceed 500 pounds using a bumper-mounted hitch ball (Class III
trailers) or 1,000 pounds using a weight-distributing receiver hitch
(Class IV trailers). This requirement overrides Max. Trailer ratings
shown. Additionally, tongue weight should never cause vehicle to exceed
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) or GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating).
A weight-distributing hitch is recommended for trailers more than
2,000 pounds. An exhaust brake is strongly recommended with manual
transmission for trailers weighing more than 10,000 pounds. |
