What is the towing capacity of a 2005 silverado 1500 extended cab 4.8 V8?

The towing capacity of a 2005 Silverado 1500 extended cab with the 4.8L V8 engine varies depending on several factors, including the axle ratio, transmission, and whether it's a 2WD or 4WD model. There's no single answer.

To find the *exact* towing capacity for your specific truck, you need to:

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

* Consult the owner's manual: Your owner's manual will also specify the towing capacity for your particular configuration.

Without that information, providing a precise number would be inaccurate and potentially dangerous. Estimates found online are only general ranges and may not apply to your specific truck.
