Can I tow my new camper safely
I just bought a new camper with a UVW of 8130# towing with a 2008 chevy 1500 4x4 w/5.3L motor and 3.73 gears. Do you think I will be all right towing this?

I had an '07 1500 Silverado 4X4 5.3L 3.73 gears with a 7500 towing capacity and purchased a TT with an UVW of 6,000. Once loaded with gear and only myself in the truck had it weighed and was 500 lbs over GCVW rating. I towed it a few time locally with that truck and felt like the TT was in control. Now own a 2013 2500 DM with 13,000 towing capacity and don't even know TT is back there. There is no way I would tow your TT with your truck.
