Properly loading your vehicle will provide maximum return of vehicle design performance. Before loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the following terms for determining your vehicle's weight ratings, with or without a trailer, from the vehicle's Safety Certification Label and Tire and Load Information Label: Base Curb Weight ­ is the weight of the vehicle including a full tank of fuel and all standard equipment. Vehicle Curb Weight ­ is the weight of your new vehicle when you picked it up from your dealer plus any aftermarket equipment. Cargo Weight ­ includes all weight added to the Base Curb Weight, including cargo and optional equipment. When towing, trailer tongue load or king pin weight is also part of cargo weight. GAW (Gross Axle Weight) ­ is the total weight placed on each axle (front and rear) ­ including vehicle curb weight and all payload. GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) ­ is the maximum allowable weight that can be carried by a single axle (front or rear). These numbers are shown on the Safety Compliance Certification Label located on the driver's door or door pillar. 117 2004 Mustang (mus) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA English (fus) Driving Exceeding the Safety Certification Label axle weight rating limits could result in substandard vehicle handling, performance, engine, transmission and/or structural damage, serious damage to the vehicle, loss of control and personal injury. Note: For trailer towing information refer to Trailer Towing found in this chapter or the RV and Trailer Towing Guide provided by your dealership. GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) ­ is the Vehicle Curb Weight + cargo + passengers. GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) ­ is the maximum allowable weight of the fully loaded vehicle (including all options, equipment, passengers and cargo). The GVWR is shown on the Safety Compliance Certification Label located on the driver's door or door pillar. Exceeding the Safety Certification Label axle weight rating limits could result in substandard vehicle handling, performance, engine, transmission and/or structural damage, serious damage to the vehicle, loss of control and personal injury. 118 2004 Mustang (mus) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA English (fus) Driving GCW (Gross Combined Weight) ­ is the weight of the loaded vehicle (GVW) plus the weight of the fully loaded trailer. GCWR (Gross Combined Weight Rating) ­ is the maximum allowable weight of the vehicle and the loaded trailer ­ including all cargo and passengers ­ that the vehicle can handle without risking damage. (Important: The towing vehicle's braking system is rated for operation at GVWR, not at GCWR. Separate functional brakes should be used for safe control of towed vehicles and for trailers weighing more than 680 kg [1, 500 lbs]). Maximum Loaded Trailer Weight ­ is the highest possible weight of a fully loaded trailer the vehicle can tow. It assumes a vehicle with only mandatory options, no cargo (internal or external), a tongue load of 10­15% (conventional trailer) or king pin weight of 15­25% (fifth wheel trailer), and driver only (68 kg [150 lbs]). Consult your dealership (or the RV and Trailer Towing Guide provided by your dealership) for more detailed information. Tongue Load or Fifth Wheel King Pin Weight ­ refers to the amount of the weight that a trailer pushes down on a trailer hitch. Examples: For a 2268 kg (5000 lbs. ) conventional trailer, multiply 5000 by 0. 10 and 0. 15 to obtain a proper tongue load range of 227 to 340 kg (500 to 750 lbs. ).
