⚠ IMPORTANT — READ BEFORE TOWING

Figures shown are base configuration ratings from official manufacturer towing guides. Your actual capacity may differ based on installed options and accessories. For non-HD trucks, payload is often the limiting factor — not tow rating. Always check: (1) the yellow sticker on your driver door jamb for actual payload, (2) your hitch receiver weight rating, and (3) real-world tongue weight including propane, batteries and water.

Exceeding the tongue weight limit can cause trailer sway and loss of steering control even when within the max tow rating.
