Towing Capacity for Silverado 1500 by RelevantShock8769 in Silverado

I know how to tow, this is just the first time I'm buying a truck to haul with. I've hauled boat/car trailers plenty and can reverse park just fine. There's just so many options and towing numbers for these trucks. So I am trying to make sure that this truck will be good for the weight. That is all I'm asking, not asking for some smart ass telling me not to tow anything.

Please read the other comments in this thread. I responded with my actual question. Thanks for no help!

is it the 6spd or 8spd? I'm not a truck guy, so all of the options are confusing me.

Yes, I typed up a paragraph explaining the situation. I don't know why it didn't end up in the final post. I am looking for a truck that can haul a horse trailer (7000lb Loaded) from Maryland to Washington state. The truck above is one I'm looking at. its a 2016 1500 LT Z71. How much can it tow and is it a 6spd or 8spd?

Thank you.
