it doesn't say which rearend or motor, but if you have the 5.3 and the 3.42 rear, it can tow up to 9500 lbs. properly equipped with a trailer brake. If you are talking about a trailer max pkg. with the 6.0 motor, it can tow up to 10700 lbs. I hope this helps. (rearend code in your glove box would be GU6 for a 3.42 or GT4 for a 3.73- if it is the 3.08, you can only tow about 6500 lbs.)
