I have a 2002 Chevy 1500 with the 5.3. It is just okay pulling my enclosed 18 foot trailer. If I had to do it over I would go with a bigger engine. Bob Davis Mt. Dora, FL 62TR4racer 67.5 Datsun2000 6

I use an 2002 Avalanche with a 5.3 V8 and I can't even feel the trailer behind. I get about 18 mpg towing. Joe (C) Amici: Does anyone have any comments on the Chevy 5.3 litre V-8 and its suitability

I have a 2003 Silverado LS, extended cab, short bed. I tow a 25' Travel trailer which weights about 5000lbs. I have no problem at all. My truck has the 5.3L engine. I love it, and there are times wh

I'll take a wild guess that you have an open trailer. The difference between an open trailer and an enclosed trailer is quite substantial. I just bought a Pace 20 foot enclosed trailer and the empty
