Truck-Camper Loading Information This label is inside your glove box. It will tell you if your vehicle can carry a slide-in camper, how much of a load your vehicle can carry, and how to correctly spread out your load. Also, it will help you match the right slide-in camper to your vehicle. When you carry a slide-in camper, the total cargo load of your vehicle is the weight of the camper, plus everything else added to the camper after it left the factory: everything in the camper: and 0 all the people inside. Refer to the Truck-Camper Loading Information label in the glove box for A and B dimensions. Use the rear edge of the load floor for measurement purposes. The Cargo Weight Rating (CWR) is the maximum weight of the load your vehicle can carry. It doesn't include the weight of the people inside. But, you can figure about 150 lbs. (68 kg) for each seating position. The total cargo load must not be more than your vehicle's CWR. The recommended location for the cargo centerof gravity for the Cargo Weight Rating (C) is the point where the mass of a body is concentrated and. if suspended at that point, would balance the front and rear. +-43
