WHAT MATTERS
The details behind a reliable answer
TowGauge separates vehicle identity, manufacturer ratings, vehicle-specific inputs and equipment guidance instead of treating them as one data source.
Tongue load
Trailer tongue weight sits on the tow vehicle and consumes payload.
Remaining capacity
TowGauge compares the entered load with the vehicle-specific payload value.
