I am still searching for my first ever unit and one that I'm looking at raised a question about GVWR and GCWR. The GVWR is 31,000. The Wet Weight is 27,550, which leaves a 3,450 payload capacty. I have calculated the family's weight and itemized what I think all of our stuff will weigh. All that I can think of and I'm coming up with 1500 lbs.. Until June I'm stuck with the Mazda Tribute which weighs just under 4,000 lbs. and my husband and I are pretty sure it requires a trailer, which U-Haul says is about 2,000 lbs.. The GCWR is 36,000 lbs.. So, there is only a 5,000 lb difference between the GCWR and the GVWR when the trailer/car will weigh about 6,000 lbs. However, I think I have some capacity to spare between the GVWR and the Wet Weight. So my question is can I tow the trailer/car? (And did everything I just said make sense?)
