How to check Nissan Armada towing capacity?

We are considering an Armada to tow our 6K lbs. loaded, 25' TT. Time to trade the 2008 Expedition. I see in Trailer Life towing guides that for all years, they are rated 9K towing capacity.

However, most ads list them as 6,500 max. If an Armada has a factory class IV hitch and 7 pin connector, can I count on it for 9K? Or, how else can you tell?

Thanks

  • Page 9-21 of the owner's manual says 6,500# without the tow package and 9,100# with the tow package and two wheel drive, 9,000# with the tow package and four wheel drive. Maximum tongue weight is 10% of its respective tow rating.

  • Look on this page, you have to scroll way down to see the towing specs:

    They show the SL platinum 4WD with a 9000# tow capacity and a 900# tongue weight.
