Does anyone have a 3.0 duramax with the max trailering package? I am interested in hearing your observations about the package while towing an RV. Considering trading my 2500 for the 3.0 as I tow a travel trailer only twice a year. I don't want to drive the 2500 daily.

I emailed The Fast Lane to do a towing test on the 3.0 with the max towing package. They said they will do a test as soon as they could get one. The 3.0 with the max tow package seem to be as rare as hens teeth.

My 2022 refreshed Chevy LT with the duramax and Max Trailering package arrived at the dealer today. Will pick it up tomorrow. I am driving it to New York from Ohio Friday to break it in. Hoping for the same experience.

Just got back from Ny, drove about 900 miles for break in. Got 32 mpg at 70 mph, and this with the 373 rear end. I am impressed. Curb weight is 5550 and payload is 1750. Payload is lower that I anticipated but is workable. Haven't had time to figure out how to post pictures yet.

I am trying to get my weight Distributing hitch set up and trying to figure out how much payload capacity I had left when I read this in the 2022 Silverado trailering guide.

Maximum Trailer Weight Rating This rating is determined by subtracting the tow vehicle’s weight (curb weight) from the Gross Combination Weight Rating (GCWR). Base vehicle (curb) weight plus 150 lbs. each for the driver and a front passenger is used, so additional passengers, equipment and cargo weight reduce this rating. This rating can be found on the Trailering Information Label located on the doorframe for Silverado 1500, Silverado 1500 LTD, Silverado HD, Suburban and Tahoe.

Am I reading this right? I looks like they are including 150 lbs for the driver and front passenger in the curb weight.
