Helpful Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 76128 has a hitch receiver tongue weight rating of 675 lbs. Your owners manual states that the maximum load for your vehicle is 850 lbs. So if you have your max capacity tongue weight of 675, then you will only be able to have one person weighing 175 lbs maximum driving the vehicle with no other cargo. You will simply subtract the weight of people and cargo from the 850 lbs to get your max tongue weight at any given time.
There is a label attached to the driver's side doorjamb that will help you to determine this. Page 105 of your owners manual will assist you with this if you need further help.
