Can a Chevrolet Silverado 1500 tow
a Goldfields Campers & Caravans Rebellion 19.6?
LT Trail Boss 6.2L V8 (2023), checked against published figures.
The answer is on the compliance plate
The Silverado 1500's braked tow rating is 4,200kg. The Rebellion 19.6's compliance plate carries its legal maximum weight (ATM), so ask the dealer for that number. If it sits under 4,200kg with room for your gear, this pairing works.
Your shortlist keeps every saved van on one page to compare side by side, and you can email the list to yourself.
Towing weights are enforced against the plates on the two vehicles. The comparison above puts the Goldfields Campers & Caravans Rebellion 19.6's published weights next to the Chevrolet Silverado 1500's published ratings, so you know which numbers to look for on those plates.

Always check your compliance plate
Online databases use factory-standard specs. They do not know about the bullbar on your car, a suspension upgrade, or how much you are carrying. Each one changes your real limits.
How to find it
Open your passenger or driver door. Look for a silver or black metal plate riveted to the pillar. This plate overrides everything you read online.
Why the numbers move once you load up
The figure most often left out of the sum is payload, which is everything you add after the vehicles leave the factory.
- • Bullbar and winch: both add weight to the front of the car, and it comes out of your payload.
- • Passengers: everyone in the car, including the driver, comes out of its payload.
- • Ball weight: the weight the van puts on the towball comes out of your car's payload as well as its towing limit.
Work out what this van is allowed to carry, then check the figures before you pack it.
Always weigh your rig fully loaded.
This is a guide off the makers' published figures.The legal numbers are the compliance plates on your car and the van. Where we do not hold a published ball weight, we estimate it at 10% of ATM.Weigh the loaded rig at a public weighbridge to know for sure, then read the ticket.
Where the published weights sit close together, how you pack changes what the scales say. Heavy items ride best low down and over the caravan's axles, and whatever sits on the towball is carried by the car rather than by the van.
