it has a 7,500-pound hitch with a 750-lb tongue capacity. I will have to look tomorrow when its light outside to see what the car hauler tongue weight is. I know the car hauler itself weighs aprox 2,000 lbs and will carry 7,000 lbs.
I would doubt if it will state a tongue weight as the mfg doesn't know how you're going to load a car on it. How far forward or back will the load go? Will you load it with the car forward or backwards placing the weight of the engine on the front or rear of trailer. Will you load a small pick up truck on it with a golf cart or Harley in the rear putting more weight on the rear of the trailer and less weight on the tongue?
