2023 GMC Sierra 2500HD Towing Capacity

62 of 186 live listings carry the CMT Gooseneck/Fifth-Wheel Prep Package, read from the window sticker or OEM code. Updated hourly.

All five 2023 Sierra 2500HD trims in our catalog, the Pro, SLE, SLT, AT4 and Denali, are rated 18,500 lb conventional; the Pro runs the 6.6L gas V8 on a 3.73 axle and the others the Duramax diesel on 3.42. CMT, the gooseneck / fifth-wheel prep package, is rated 18,500 lb gooseneck. Z6A appears on this page too, but without a figure: our verified sources give it more than one gooseneck rating for 2023, so the page shows the code and leaves the number out rather than pick one.

Live listings with tow equipment

Counted only when the package shows on the truck's window sticker or in its OEM option codes, not in dealer text.

One catalog configuration per trim. Each trim comes in several engine, axle, cab and bed combinations with different ratings; a truck's own window sticker has its exact ones. A dash means the figure isn’t in our catalog or isn’t confirmed against an OEM source.

Factory tow packages

Verified packages with an OEM order code and what they change for towing. A rating is shown only where every verified source for that code agrees.
