Will It Tow?
2025 Tesla Cybertruck (Single motor RWD (Long Range)) with the 2026 Forest River Puma 229RB at its full GVWR of 7,288 lb, two adults and a dog aboard and a weight-distribution hitch.
To know for sure, enter the payload from your door sticker (the yellow Tire and Loading one).
- Tow rating: 212 lb to spare (7,288 lb camper, rating 7,500 lb)
- Payload: Not sure yet (1,585 to 1,803 lb used, payload up to 2,006 lb)
- Truck and trailer together: Not sure yet (, GCWR not listed)
To settle it for your own truck: enter the payload from your door sticker (the yellow Tire and Loading one); measure your tongue weight.
Check it with your own numbers- Weight-distribution hitch (needed): Your camper is over 5,000 lb. Most truck makers require weight distribution here, and many receivers are rated far lower without it. It spreads the tongue weight to your front axle and the camper's axles, so the truck sits level and steers right.
- Sway control (strongly recommended): It stops the camper swinging side to side in crosswinds, when semis pass and on rough roads. At about 26 ft, your camper catches a lot of wind. Many weight-distribution hitches have it built in.
- Spring bars rated about 900 to 1,400 lb (size): Match the bars to your loaded tongue weight (875 to 1,093 lb, from an estimate of 12 to 15% of the camper's weight) plus anything heavy behind the truck's rear axle. Bars that are too stiff ride rough. Too light won't level the rig.
- Brake controller (needed): Your camper has electric brakes, and the controller in your cab runs them. Many newer trucks have one built in.
- Measure your tongue weight (tip): We're estimating 875 to 1,093 lb. A tongue weight scale or a hitch with a built-in gauge gives you the real number. Enter it in step 2.
Hitches make towing steadier, but none of them raise your tow rating or payload. The hitch itself counts against payload.
Ratings come from manufacturer towing guides and spec sheets. These are planning estimates, not a safety guarantee. Your truck and camper stickers, your owner's manual and a scale always win.
