Looking for BH for my newer 06 1500 TV

[lawrosa]

Hi All.

I did a search and looked at contless manufacturer sites and can not find the right weight and floor plan for my newer 2006 silverado 1500..

My s 10 did a great job of pulling the coachmen 4500 lbs trailer but my new TV dont even know its back there.

With that said I traveled alone in the s10 when I towed. I was at max weight limits.

Now with the new truck I should be able to fit the family in there and have enough payload left for something a bit bigger..

The 06 silverado says payload of 1500 lbs. I did not get my max yet if I go by the axle weights. Which I do.

Ill have 600 lbs in cab and bed with camper stuff. Just sewer hose, alum jacks, pads, hoses, ect..

Im fine with a 7500 lb or less TT.

I am looking for the bigger beds in the bunk area. not the coffins. Queen of course in master,

But the kicker is I hate the dining and coach on the same slide and that crappy TV position.

And I hate the dues openings to the master with the TV centered.

Is there something out there with this type of seating?

I was looking at gulf streams, star crafts , and jaycos so far.

Any help would be apreciated.

Oh and my vin tag got waxed off on the door. So not sure of the axle weights.

Anyone with a 2006 silverado long bed ext cab out there 4x4? 5.3 L

I read thet the front may be 3925 lbs and the rear 3750 lb axle weights..

Thanks all..

We just picked up a Forest River Salem Cruise Light 261bhxl. 4365 dry weight. We like the layout. It has 2 bunks one larger and one small.

Yes.

GVWR - Actual Truck Weight = Payload.
