Can a 2007 Chevrolet C2500 6.0L, v8 Gas truck handle an RV with a max weight of 7,600 lbs.?

Expert Reply:
I looked up the towing capacity of a 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500 with a 6.0 and every configuration was well over 7,600 lb so yes it could. Looks like lowest configuration is 9,600 lb towing capacity and highest 13,000 lb. I'd recommend confirming this with your owners manual or local GM dealer though.
If you were looking for a fifth wheel hitch the Curt A20 part # C16140 would be a great option. It has more than enough weight capacity and also has a really tight jaw design that which provides a quiet and smooth ride quality. Then to install this you'd want the Curt custom fifth wheel rail kit part # C16418-204 which installs easily and minimizes drilling compared to other options.
