What can an Avalanche pull?
We decided to buy a camper so I have done some research on what we can safely tow with the manual saying our towing max is 7100 pounds. I get lost on the math but realize 6,000 is too much, correct? W...

Isn't the OP talking about a TT so the only "payload" would be the tongue weight? as far as towing capacity/weight, that would be wet weight plus "stuff" not necessarily maximum trailer weight rating.

Yes, but we need to know the payload of the tow vehicle to determine if there is enough left to handle the tongue weight. For example, if the TV payload is 1300lbs and 600lbs of that is used up for passenger weights and some cargo, plus another 75lbs for the WD hitch, then there would only be 625lbs left in the TV payload for the tongue weight. In this example that would mean a loaded TT weight of 4800lbs if using the average 13% for tongue weight (4800 x 13% = 624lbs)
