in the maximum vehicle load limit.
● Load cargo in the cargo bed as close to
the center of the vehicle as possible and
tie it down using the cargo hooks
equipped on the cargo bed.
● Tie down cargo securely in the trailer.
Make sure cargo in the trailer cannot
move around. A shifting load can cause
an accident.
● Make sure the load does not interfere with
controls or your ability to see where you
are going.
● Drive more slowly than you would without
a load. The more weight you carry, the
slower you should go. Although
conditions vary, it is good practice not to
exceed low range whenever you are
carrying heavier loads or when towing a
trailer.
● Allow more braking distance. A heavier
vehicle takes longer to stop.
● Avoid making sharp turns unless at very
slow speeds.
● Avoid hills and rough terrain. Added
weight affects the stability and handling of
the vehicle.
