If you have a manual transmission, about 1500lbs. My 1986 had an automatic and handles that no problem...but soon afterward the transmission failed...pinhole leak in the fluid cooler.

I towed a 2000 lb sailboat from Kentucky to Florida and to the Chesapeake bay and many other places with no problems. Going across the blue ridge mountains was slow up hill
