HAULING CARGO AND

VEHICLE HANDLING

When using your vehicle to haul

cargo, make sure it is properly

loaded to help ensure safe

handling. Cargo should be evenly

distributed over the floor of the

cargo area, with the heaviest cargo

on the bottom and ahead of the

rear axle.

If you must haul cargo on the roof

of the vehicle, use extra caution

when driving. Cargo placed on the

roof will tend to make your vehicle

top heavy, causing it to lean more

on corners and creating a greater

possibility of vehicle roll over

should you lose control of the

vehicle.
