Driving your vehicle
Weight of the trailer tongue
The  tongue   load  of  any   trailer  is   an
important weight  to measure  because it
affects  the   total  gross   vehicle  weight
(GVW)   of   your   vehicle.  This   weight
includes the  curb  weight of  the vehicle,
any  cargo you  may carry  in  it, and  the
people who  will be  riding in the  vehicle.
And if you will tow a trailer, you must add
the  tongue  load  to  the  GVW  because
your  vehicle  will  also  be  carrying  that
weight.
The trailer  tongue should weigh  a maxi-
mum  of 10%  of  the  total loaded  trailer
weight. After  you've  loaded  your trailer,
weigh  the  trailer  and  then  the  tongue,
separately, to see if the weights are prop-
er. If they aren’t, you may be  able to cor-
rect them  simply by moving  some items
around in the trailer.

Weight of the trailer
How  heavy  can  a  trailer  safely  be?  It
should never weigh  more than the maxi-
mum trailer weight with trailer brakes. But
even that can be too heavy.
It depends on  how you plan  to use your
trailer. For example, speed, altitude, road
grades,  outside   temperature  and  how
often your vehicle is used  to pull a trailer
are all important. The  ideal trailer weight
can  also depend  on any  special  equip-
ment that you have on your vehicle.
WARNING - Trailer
•  Never  load   a  trailer  with   more
weight  in   the  rear  than   in  the
front. The front should  be loaded
with  approximately   60%  of   the
total trailer  load; the rear  should
be   loaded   with   approximately
40% of the total trailer load.
