First let me disclaim that I have not searched all of the forum for previous links on this topic. I will apologize in advance for that. Now, is there anyone out there using a 2014 GM half ton as their TV. I just purchased a 2014 Keystone Bullet 272BHS. Dry weight is just under 5,000lbs. Based on the numbers on the trailer CCC will bring the allowed GVW to 6,500lbs. Going to be using Equalizer WDH w/ SC. Anyone out there have a similar setup? For the Ford guys out there, I have driven the F-150EB but just not real confident with Ford and my local dealer is a professional scam artist.

These numbers are from the Keystone web page:
The RV has a 5030 shipping weight - this is dry weight - 1 battery and no propane in the tanks.
It has a 2510 lb carrying capacity
Potential weight - 7540 lbs.
The GVWR of the 1500 is 7200 lbs with the 5.3 L engine and 6900 lbs with the 4.3 L engine
That is too much trailer for a 1500 truck - go for a 2500HD Silverado and that will give you margin on the GVWR and may help in the future if you get a heavier RV.
Silverado 2500HD - 9500 lb GVWR with the gas engine and 10,000 lb GVWR with the diesel engine.
