Advised towing weights can be easily found in the owners handbook.
but who reads that?
If it goes against your "manliness" to actually "RTFI"... then you could always try the VIN plate .. drivers door pillar or engine bay.. both give all the information you need to be legal ....
Don't you mean R T F M?
I already knew where to find the info .... the VIN isn't the plate with the weights on
M= Manual
I= Instructions
Both mean the same IMHO ...
VIN plate lists 4 weights.
Gross vehicle weight = max weight of the vehicle, sometimes called the MAM .. maximum allowable mass
Gross train weight = max combined weight of both vehicle and trailer
max front axle weight
max rear axle weight
If you subtract line 1 from line 2 it gives you the maximum weight of any trailer you wish to tow ....
seeemples ...
If you don't believe me and want further "evidence" .....

"The actual, exact and only towing capacity figure that should be used for your vehicle is that which is stamped on the Vehicle Identification Number Plate, VIN Plate."
