What these tables cover

These are Chevrolet's maximum conventional trailer-weight and gross combined weight rating (GCWR) comparison values for the listed configurations. Gooseneck and fifth-wheel ratings are outside this page's scope.

Payload, GVWR, GAWR, curb weight, axle ratio, transmission, and configuration-specific tongue-load limits are not supplied by these table rows and are not inferred here.

A published maximum is not an exact-vehicle guarantee

Passengers, cargo, options, accessories, equipment, and vehicle condition can affect an individual vehicle. Confirm the door labels, Owner's Manual, equipment, and loaded weights for the specific truck and trailer.

51 configurations · 102 ratings

Configuration-by-configuration ratings

GCWR includes the properly equipped vehicle and trailer combination plus the driver, passengers, fuel, optional equipment, and cargo in both the vehicle and trailer.

Guide notes that apply

1: Maximum trailering ratings are comparison values; the specific vehicle can vary, and passengers, cargo, options, and accessories can reduce towable weight. All values in the Max conventional towing (lbs.) columns on printed pages 26-27.
2: GCWR includes the properly equipped vehicle and trailer combination, driver, passengers, fuel, optional equipment, and cargo in both vehicle and trailer. All values in the GCWR (lbs.) columns on printed pages 26-27.
General Trailering Notes: Where available, the Z82 Trailering Package provides a hitch platform plus 7-pin and 4-pin sealed rear-bumper connectors. Table-level equipment note on printed pages 26-27; it does not assert that every row includes Z82.
Tongue Weight Notes: The guide gives a general 10%-15% loaded-trailer tongue-weight range, defers to the trailer owner manual where applicable, and prohibits exceeding RGAWR, GVWR, or maximum trailer tongue load. Table-level operating guidance on printed pages 26-27; not a configuration-specific hitch or tongue-weight rating.

Read the publication methodology, source and revision policy, or the guide to GVWR, GCWR, and GAWR; then check a loaded scenario.
