Cargo Allowance of Road Glide 5th Wheels When Towed by Various Utes
This Chart shows, using the manufactures specifications, the Net Pay Load (the maximium permited weight of goods) you may carry inside each
Road Glide model when towed by each ute. The law in NZ is as such that the
trailer must weigh (GVM) less than 3500kg fully loaded. However, the
chart below also takes into account a vehicles tow rating so as to not void
the factory warranty on the ute.
The Tare weight of each Road Glide model includes: 2x full 9kg LPG bottles, awning, battery & spare wheel.
If you wish to have another make of fifth wheel compared with the same
conditions please email me with the make and model for a straight forward
answer.
