2009 Mazda B Series Extended CAB towing capacity
The 2009 Mazda B Series Extended CAB is published in one configuration with a tow rating of 5,600 lb (mid-size SUV / pickup territory).
The table below lists every trim of the 2009 Mazda B Series Extended CAB with the engine, drivetrain, axle ratio, horsepower, torque, GVWR, curb weight, and payload that go with that trim's headline tow rating. Manufacturers often publish more than one tow figure per truck — a conventional bumper-hitch rating, a weight-distributing rating, and a gooseneck or fifth-wheel rating — so the highest number here is the maximum across all hitch classes the source carries for the trim.
Per-trim breakdown

| B4000 Pickup 4D 6 ft | V6, 4.0 Liter | 207 | 238 | — | 5,600 | — | 3,662 | — |
How to interpret the headline tow figure
Tow ratings at this level are normally achievable with a conventional Class II or Class III receiver hitch. Always verify your vehicle has the manufacturer's tow package installed if you intend to tow at the upper end of the rating, and inspect the door-jamb sticker for the actual maximum permitted on your specific configuration.
How this year compares to 2008
The 2008 Mazda B Series Extended CAB carried a maximum tow rating of 5,600 lb. The 2009 model carries the same headline figure — manufacturers usually leave the rating alone year-over-year unless there's a powertrain or hitch change.
