DATA METHODOLOGY
How TowGauge sources data and handles uncertainty.
TowGauge treats manufacturer documentation as the source of truth for towing ratings and keeps source metadata attached to the vehicle record that powers each result.
WHAT MATTERS
Built around the complete towing picture
TowGauge separates vehicle identity, manufacturer ratings, vehicle-specific labels and equipment fitment rather than treating them as one data source.
No silent inference
TowGauge does not promote a headline maximum into a configuration-specific result.
Confidence states
Manufacturer verified, configuration verified and vehicle-specific inputs remain distinguishable.
HOW IT WORKS
A clear path from question to answer
Find OEM source
Use the Canadian manufacturer's official towing documentation.
Validate table cell
