Hi,
So this question comes about from looking into purchasing a travel trailer for my truck (2017 4x4 longbox Z71) and the published numbers of truck GVWR on the door is 6200#s and the max towing capacity is 7600#s from the manual and then I looked at chevy’s published GCVWR is 12700#s. Now if some one could correct me, but is one of these numbers incorrect? If we added the published numbers from the door and the hitch that GCVWR would be 13800#s or we took the published GCVWR and subtracted the truck GVWR the tow limit would be 6500#s.
I’m a newby to all this, so maybe I just don’t understand all the figures. Happy to have someone straighten me out.
Thanks.
