How this list is built

• Each figure is the maximum trailer weight printed in the maker's own towing guide or spec sheet, checked twice before it went on the site (see data sources).
• "Highest rating" is the single best configuration the maker lists; "lowest rating listed" is the weakest configuration in the same document. Your truck or SUV sits somewhere in between, depending on engine, axle ratio, cab, bed, drive and towing package.
• The classes are our grouping by body style and duty, so similar vehicles sit side by side. Ranking is by rating only: it says nothing about price, comfort or reliability.
• Ties are listed alphabetically.

Before you pick a vehicle by its top number

• The headline rating usually needs a specific engine, axle ratio and towing package; the base version of the same model can be rated thousands of pounds lower.
• Payload often runs out first: tongue weight, passengers and cargo all count against it. Check with the payload calculator.
• Heavy-duty top ratings are fifth-wheel or gooseneck figures. A conventional ball hitch has its own, lower limit.
• Your owner's manual and the labels on your door jamb always come first. To check a real trailer against every limit at once, use Can I tow it?
