Karbrys,
I had a 2006 Chevy 2500HD with the Duramax/Allison combo. On the door sticker it said the truck will carry a total cargo of 2440 pounds. With my weight of 200 lbs, the hitch weight of 300 pounds, the wife's weight of (hell No!) plus a tool box with 2 Honda 2k generators I was was well overweight. At that point I had 3000 pounds in the bed. Air bags leveled the truck nicely but I was still overloaded. I decided to trade it in for a 3500HD. I took a hit in the wallet but the ride is a heck of a lot better (and maybe in an emergency safer). I'm sure the truck can move a 20,000 pound trailer but only you can make the choice on safety.
