What Can the Chevy Silverado 3500 Tow?

Let’s get the most important figure out of the way first! The 2022 Silverado 3500 can tow up to 36,000 pounds when properly equipped. That’s a tremendous total, and one that will likely meet (and exceed) all your towing needs. Let’s break down this truck’s towing ability in more detail:

• Max Conventional Towing: 20,000 lbs.
• Max 5^th-Wheel Towing: 32,000 lbs.
• Max Gooseneck Towing: 36,000 lbs.

As you can see, to get the top tow rating numbers, you’ll need to equip your Silverado 3500 for 5^th-wheel or gooseneck towing. Still, even the conventional tow rating makes this vehicle quite capable for a range of applications.

A Closer Look at the Silverado 3500 Specs

The 2022 Silverado 3500 can be equipped with one of two engines. Those engines include a 6.6L V8 Gas Engine as well as a Duramax® 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8, each sporting some impressive performance specs.

If you want to reach that top towing capacity, you’ll need the turbo-diesel engine and its 10-speed Allison® automatic transmission. In addition to its 910 lb-ft of torque, this powerhouse cranks out 445 horsepower and will help you get the most out of your Chevy truck.

With a 6-speed automatic, the gas engine can send up to 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque to the wheels. In short, you’re in good hands with either Silverado 3500 engine.
