tow weight opinions for a possible upgrade
Have the 09 silverado in my signature. we are looking into moving to a viewfinder 28bhss. dry weight or little under 6000. we do not ever tow with loaded fresh grey or black tanks. use linx level...

yea I understand as family grows, needs will change. As they get bigger tow vehicle will age itself out of the loop also. At that time I of course would look back at how it towed versus what a 2500 series would. I was just asking for a baseline of opinion or of people who have towed similar with a similar tow vehicle. It is 2009 ext cab 1500 silverado std bed, z71 with 5.3 has factory z82 hd towing and tranny oil cooler on it. Was just looking to from some people who have experienced similar rigs. We live in ohio, most mountain we would encounter is smokies on 75 southbound. I know alot of people on here are die hard 3/4 ton or better to tow a small lawn trailer, but That isnt always an option for everyone when it is your daily driver also. GM states 7500 to 8000 lbs with up to 1100 tongue weight with wdh. and the trailer will be within that, but like i said, just wanted to hear from folks on here with similar experience. Thanks so much for all of your help.
