Don't know about the new model but towed a 10000 lbs boat (well balanced on the trailer) with a 2004 GMC 1/2 ton sierra for a whole summer(not even functionnal brakes on the trailer) and I had no problem at all. I could even set the cruise control on at 75 mph and it would not even downshift from the overdrive! 5.3 liter engine. NICE truck!

A half ton to tow that much... in 6 month it'll look like Whitney Houston after a few years on crack...
