Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2015 Silverado is the Draw-Tite Max Frame Trailer Hitch, part # 75866. This is a Class lll hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening.
If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
To add a 4-way connector to your Silverado I recommend the Pollak 7 and 4-pole connector, part # HM40975. This simply replaces the 7-way connector at the rear of your truck.
