  1. 1 With the Max Trailering Package: the maker’s figure for the configuration with that factory option.
  2. 2 With the Max Trailering Package and 20-inch wheels: the maker’s figure for the configuration with those factory options together.
  3. 3 With the Z7X 2-inch lift (Police Pursuit Vehicle, fleet-only): the maker’s figure for the configuration with that factory option.
  4. 4 Chevrolet’s documents disagree: 9,300 lb (spec book) vs 9,400 lb (same spec book).
  5. 5 Chevrolet’s documents disagree: 9,000 lb (press kit) vs 9,200 lb (same press kit).
  6. 6 Chevrolet’s documents disagree: 275/60R20 (spec book) vs 275/55R20 (same spec book).

A dash means the maker’s documents we have don’t give that number for that configuration, and a column with no number for any configuration of the year isn’t shown. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label, and “not published” that the maker doesn’t print it, or points elsewhere. “Up to” is a ceiling the maker prints over several configurations; a range is the maker’s own, printed across the grades of that configuration. “Fleet only” configurations are sold only to fleets, such as police: they are listed, but no headline number, comparison or ranking uses them.
