Truck-Camper Loading Information
A vehicle specific Truck‐Camper Loading
information label is attached to the inside of your
vehicle's glove box. This label will tell you if your
vehicle can carry a slide-in camper, how much of
a load your vehicle can carry, and how to correctly
spread out the load. Also, it will help you match
the right slide-in camper to your vehicle.
When you carry a slide-in camper, the total cargo
load of your vehicle is the weight of the camper,
plus the following:
.
Everything else added to the camper after it
left the factory
.
Everything in the camper
.
All the people inside
The Cargo Weight Rating (CWR) is the maximum
weight of the load your vehicle can carry. It does
not include the weight of the people inside. But,
you can figure about 150 lbs (68 kg) for each seat.
The total cargo load must not be more than your
vehicle's CWR.
Refer to the Truck-Camper Loading Information
label in the glove box for dimensions A and B as
shown in the following illustration.
Use the rear edge of the load floor for
measurement purposes. The recommended
location for the cargo center of gravity is at
point C for the CWR. It is the point where the
mass of a body is concentrated and, if suspended
at that point, would balance the front and rear.
