218 Towing Note: Certain states require electric trailer brakes for trailers over a specified weight. Be sure to check state regulations for this specified weight. The maximum trailer weights listed may be limited to this specified weight, as your vehicle's electrical system may not include the wiring connector needed to use electric trailer brakes. Your vehicle may tow a Class I, II, III or IV trailer provided the maximum trailer weight is less than or equal to the maximum trailer weight listed for your vehicle configuration on the following chart. To calculate the maximum loaded trailer weight for your vehicle: 1. Start with the gross combined weight rating for your vehicle model and axle ratio. See the following chart. 2. Subtract all of the following that apply to your vehicle: • Vehicle curb weight • Hitch hardware weight, such as a draw bar, ball, locks or weight distributing • Driver weight • Passenger(s) weight • Payload, cargo and luggage weight • Aftermarket equipment weight. 3. This equals the maximum loaded trailer weight for this combination. Note: The trailer tongue load figures into the payload for your vehicle. Reduce the total payload by the final trailer tongue weight. Consult an authorized dealer to determine the maximum trailer weight allowed for your vehicle if you are not sure.
