TowGauge: Towing Limits Without the Jargon

towgauge.com Observed source

Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Canada-first towing calculator that checks manufacturer-sourced vehicle limits, including trailer rating, payload, GCWR, and tongue weight.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The calculator accepts either a 17-character VIN or a manually selected vehicle, then carries the identified vehicle into the towing check. Its visible comparison covers trailer rating, payload, tongue weight, receiver rating, and GCWR, with incomplete checks marked rather than inferred. The public registry lists Ford, Chevrolet, Ram, and Toyota families, while companion guides address hitches, brake controllers, wiring, weight distribution, and mirrors.
