Question:
In my search for a new 5th wheel Im wondering if you could provide me your opinion as to whether or not my current truck could pull a Grand Design Solitude MBS My truck 2017 Silverado 2500 Gas engine 6.0 4:10 axle ratio GVWR I show is 9,500lbs I think the GCWR is 21,000lbs The trailer according to the company brochure UVW of 13,200lbs GVWR of 16,800 Hitch weight of 2,750 which is 16 of the GVWR I believe we would have about 1,000lbs of weight added to the trailer which would put the weight at 14,200 Im thinking Im going to be slightly over my GCWR Im I correct in my calculations? Thanks

Below is the towing capacities for all versions of your 2017 Chevy Silverado including the diesel engine versions as well. You didn't list the bed length of cab style so I don't have an exact capacity to give you, but looks like you'd either barely have enough capacity or you'd be significantly under capacity.
