following:

• The actual payload on the towing vehicle must not exceed the posted

rating and the towed vehicle load must not exceed the posted lift /

towing ratings.

• The total weight of the towing vehicle (cab chassis, body, payload, driver,

passenger(s), tools, fuel, etc.) and the towed vehicle load must not

exceed the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) of the towing vehicle.

• The total weight of the towing vehicle and a towed vehicle load must be

distributed so that each axle’s GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) is not

exceeded.

• The total weight of the towing vehicle and towed vehicle (everything

that moves with the towing vehicle) must not exceed the GCWR

(Gross Combination Weight Rating) of the towing vehicle.

Staying within these ratings is necessary to maintain the safety and

performance of the towing vehicle.
