We have an 03 Silveraldo 2500HD crewcab with the Duramax diesel/Allison and the door sticker says GCWR (truck and trailer) is 21,500. Our 05 37' Cedar Creek loaded with us, 3 grandkids and dog, loaded weighed in at 20,090#. We've never had any problems towing it as of yet. Now that said, we haven't pulled it over the high elevations of Colorado, like Monarch Pass or the Eisenhower tunnel. The highest we've been is about 8000'elevation and it just chugged right up there.
GCWR isn't the whole story.....
What were your other weights.....Axles, total vehicle loaded up?
Under trucks GVWR, under RAWR, under Rear Tire Max Load Rating?
What was the trailers weight & pin weight?
Within ratings.......any truck should tow comfortably (1500,2500,3500)
That is what towing is about.
