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?

Excellent! When you do get it, you need to post what it's like towing your new TT (with pic too of course). I guarantee you'll love it. :)
You might want to look at the receiver's rating on the new truck if your actual tongue weight is indeed on the high side of the usual 10-15% range. You may find it's rated for 1250 lbs max with a WDH. Might be a good investment to get a Sherline tongue scale.
