Toyota does not print GCWR or axle ratios in this document; the owner's manual for your vehicle has them. Where Toyota prints a range (low–high), the figure for your exact vehicle depends on its grade and equipment; check the owner's manual or the door-jamb labels.
Tongue weight limits
| Limit | Applies to | Max trailer | Max tongue |

| Maximum tongue weight | i-FORCE 4x2 XtraCab | 6,500 lbs | 650 lbs |
| Maximum tongue weight | i-FORCE 4x2 Double Cab | 6,400 lbs | 640 lbs |
| Maximum tongue weight | i-FORCE 4x4 XtraCab | 6,500 lbs | 650 lbs |
| Maximum tongue weight | i-FORCE 4x4 Double Cab | 6,400 lbs | 640 lbs |

Tongue weight is how hard the trailer coupler presses down on the hitch ball. Toyota prints the maximum next to each towing rating; the rating on your hitch receiver label can be lower, and then that lower figure applies.
Check your own trailer against these limits with the tongue weight calculator: the safe range for its weight, or what a scale reading means.
Notes from Toyota

The maximum assumes a lightly loaded vehicle. Passengers, cargo and tongue weight all come out of your payload. Run your trailer through the calculator with this vehicle's limits filled in:
