I cannot find the GCWR for my van- I CAN find the GVWR (5500 pounds) which is a function of the 4500 pound trailer and 13-15% of the trailer for the tongue weight, but to accurately determine the trailer weight, I would like to find the GCWR.
According to a few sites that I pinged, the 3.8L FWD can tow 2000 pounds, OR
3800 with the towing pkg (larger alternator and CCA battery, full spare, load levelling suspension, AND engine cooling which is a larger rad with a tranny oil cooler).The same site says that the 3.8L AWD can tow 3800, no package implied. I crawled under the van tonite, and I see a send and a return line from the tranny to the rad already! Is the trailer pkg part of the AWD package to begin with?? I have to order the build sheet from the dealer to really see.
Back to the Q- there are conflicting reports as to what the GCWR is for the AWD with 3.8L- is it 9300? 9000? 8800? 8300? Once I know that, when I subtract 4500 for the van, I am left with my trailer + luggage/load.
