The GCWR for the vehicle should not be exceeded. Ask your dealer for trailering information or advice. See Customer Assistance Offices (U.S. and Canada) on page 13￿5 or Customer Assistance Offices (Mexico) on page 13￿5 for more information. Weight of the Trailer Tongue The tongue load (A) of any trailer is an important weight to measure because it affects the total gross weight of the vehicle. The Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) includes the curb weight of the vehicle, any cargo carried in it, and the people who will be riding in the vehicle. If there are a lot of options, equipment, passengers or cargo in the vehicle, it will reduce the tongue weight the vehicle can carry, which will also reduce the trailer weight the vehicle can tow. If towing a trailer, the tongue load must be added to the GVW because the vehicle will be carrying that weight, too. See Vehicle Load Limits on page 9￿10 for more information about the vehicle's maximum load capacity.
