11,400 lb GVWR minus 2,000 lb base trailer weight equals 9,400 lb estimated base payload.
Payload decreases as options are added.
Weight and payload estimates: Published trailer weight reflects the standard base configuration. Options and manufacturing variation affect final weight and available payload. Your completed trailer is weighed at the factory; its certified final weight and payload are provided after manufacturing.
Fit and towing: Payload shown is trailer payload, not your tow vehicle's capacity. Verify your vehicle, hitch, tongue-weight, and loaded-trailer ratings before ordering.
Will your vehicle tow this trailer?
Enter what you know about your tow vehicle for plain-language guidance. This is separate from the trailer's own cargo payload, and it is not a safety certification.
