Instructions:
Enter tow vehicle ratings and weights.
Enter trailer vehicle ratings and weights.
Enter hitch ratings and weights.
Note, the solutions will automatically be updated when any of the input date fields are modified or changed.
The solution section contains the calculated load and rating for each of the enter truck or trailer ratings. For some loads, the value is simply the entered weight.
In addition, gauge charts are provided to visualize the loads. If the needle is in the green the load is within the rating. Red represents an exceeded load. The transition between the green and red areas represents the rating.

The only thing that must be remembered, in order for this calculator to work, one must use "Actual" scale weights. Published gross weights are useless.
