GMC Terrain: Loading the Vehicle for Off-Road Driving
WARNING
○ Unsecured cargo on the load floor can be tossed about when driving over rough

properly.
○ Keep cargo in the cargo area as far forward and as low as possible. The heaviest
things should be on the floor, forward of the rear axle.

For more information about loading the vehicle, see Vehicle Load Limits on page 9‑16.
