Yes, the batteries on your 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 must be disconnected while in tow. However, the Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect with Switch part # RM-766 cannot be used on vehicles with a diesel engine therefore you would need a manual battery disconnect like the Deka Lead Quick-Disconnect Battery Terminal part # DW05312.
I have attached a sample install video for you as well.
