Bed, tongue weight, and wheelbase
The trailer rating is one limit. The bed has to fit the load, the tongue or pin has to fit in payload, and the wheelbase is the column the chart uses.
- An illustrative 10 percent of the 10,500 lb conventional maximum is 1,050 lb of tongue weight. This is not a measured load or recommended percentage; actual load may be higher.

Generation
Second generation
2017 is year 11 of this generation (2007–2021). Full-size redesign for 2007. The 5.7L V8 defined towing for most of this long generation and was retired at the end of it.
2017 towing by engine
Lowest to highest printed rating for each engine across 28 transcribed chart rows. A missing hitch means the chart did not print one for that engine, not that it is zero.
