Towing, it's rated at 850 pounds. GVWR is 854. We used mine to move a pop up trailer short distances with no problems. Since it has no low range on the transmission, you have to be careful with the belt.

Most quads will haul and tow more than the limit states but as OPT is implying, those limits are there for a reason. The tow rating is about the same as the Rancher 350 I used to have, which also didn't have low range but has a 5 speed transmission. Its cargo capacity was right at 100 lbs as well, 33 lbs front rack and 66 lbs rear rack, I'm sure a similar amount on the Trailboss. You can exceed these recommended limits for short distances but eventually the machine will pay for it if you do it often.
