Confused? Why?
Those reqirements are for the 1500 series. Not many 1500's are rated for over 9, 900 pounds if any.
Owners should read their own manual.
According to the online 2013 Chevrolet Silverado Owner Manual,
there are four configurations of the 6.2L V8 NHT with Max Trailering Package which have "Maximum Trailer Weights" in excess of 9,900#
There are many more Silverado 1500's rated for over 7,000#.
And, I believe the OP has a 1/2 ton truck.
