For high altitude operation, reduce GCW by 2% per 300 meters (1000

ft.) of elevation.

For definition of terms used in this table, see Vehicle loading earlier

in this chapter.

To determine maximum trailer weight designed for your vehicle, see

Calculating the load your vehicle can carry/tow earlier in this

chapter.

Maximum trailer weight is shown. The combined weight of the

completed towing vehicle (including hitch, passengers and cargo) and

the loaded trailer must not exceed the Gross Combined Weight Rating

(GCWR).

The Ranger is capable of pulling the maximum trailer weight(s) as

specified above. Certain states require electric trailer brakes for trailers

over a specified weight. The Ranger vehicle electrical system is not

equipped to accommodate electric trailer brakes.

Do not exceed the GVWR or the GAWR specified on the

certification label.

Towing trailers beyond the maximum recommended gross trailer

weight exceeds the limit of the vehicle and could result in

engine damage, transmission damage, structural damage, loss of vehicle

control, vehicle rollover and personal injury.

Preparing to tow

Use the proper equipment for towing a trailer and make sure it is

properly attached to your vehicle. See your dealer or a reliable trailer

dealer if you require assistance.
