However, a reasonable estimate for that configuration would be in the range of 6,000 to 8,000 lbs. To find the *exact* towing capacity for your specific truck, you need to check one of the following:
* The sticker on the driver's side doorjamb: This sticker lists important information about your truck, including the maximum towing capacity.
* Your owner's manual: The owner's manual will specify the towing capacity based on different configurations.
* The truck's GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) and GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating): These numbers are typically found on a sticker inside the driver's side doorjamb, and are crucial for determining safe towing capacity. Using these values and the weight of the truck itself, one can calculate the maximum safe towing weight.
Keep in mind that the listed towing capacity is a maximum. Actual towing capacity might be lower depending on factors such as cargo weight, passenger weight, and terrain. Always account for a safety margin when towing.
