WHAT IT WEIGHS BEHIND YOUR TRUCK

16,500 lbno dry weight published: its rating stands in

You want a tow rating around18,335 lb (10% margin)

GVWR (the sticker maximum)16,500 lb

WHICH TOW VEHICLES IT FITS: 15 OF 95

Judged the way the app judges: estimated loaded weight against each vehicle's rating less a 10% margin, per model year, because the 36A15's published weights held steady. Fifth wheels also need a pickup bed and are held to the fifth-wheel rating where published.
