What is the towing capacity of a 2011 Chevy Silverado with 4.8L engine?

The towing capacity of a 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the 4.8L engine varies depending on several factors, including cab configuration (regular, extended, crew cab), bed length, drivetrain (2WD or 4WD), and the specific options and packages selected. There's no single answer.

To find the exact towing capacity for a *specific* 2011 Silverado 1500 with a 4.8L engine, you need to:

* Check the sticker: Look for the sticker on the driver's side doorjamb or inside the glove box. This sticker lists the maximum towing capacity for that *particular* vehicle. This is the most reliable source.

* Consult the owner's manual: The owner's manual will also specify the towing capacity based on the truck's configuration.

Without knowing the specific configuration of the truck, providing a precise towing capacity is impossible. However, expect the range to be generally lower than Silverados with the larger 5.3L or 6.2L engines. You might find figures in the 9,000-10,000 lb range, but that's only an estimate; it could be less. Always rely on the information from the vehicle's documentation.
