40. Tow Vehicle & Trailer Weight Limitations, Know Your #s!!


Listen Later

Are you towing within your truck's limits, or are you unknowingly pushing past the safe and legal weight ratings? In this episode we dive into your tow vehicle's GVWR, GCWR, payload capacity, towing capacity, GAWR and calculating the tongue weight of your travel trailer, or pin weight of your 5th wheel. How do leaf springs vs. coils & shocks affect your payload capacity, and how your travel trailer or 5th wheel has all its own corresponding weight limits you must also stay below. Learn why visiting the CAT scale to weigh your set up will take all the guess work out of the equation and give you the accurate numbers, so that you know exactly where you are compared to all the limits. Learn why having a minimalist mindset when loading your truck and trailer will work to your advantage. Having this knowledge will set you up for safer travels!!
