Power Performance Specs of the 2027 Duramax 3500 Diesel Engine Originally published March 24, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 2026 Silverado 3500 HD LTZ dually shown. The Duramax diesel is available on every HD trim. The Short Version "2027 Duramax" means two different engines: the 3.0L Duramax in the redesigned 2027 Silverado 1500 and the Duramax turbo-diesel V8 in the Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD. The 1500's 3.0L Duramax makes 305 hp and 495 lb-ft. The HD diesel gets a new code for 2027, L6P, replacing the L5P. GM has not released its displacement, horsepower or torque. For reference, the 2026 6.6L Duramax makes 470 hp and 975 lb-ft and tows up to 36,000 lb in the 3500 HD. Searches for the 2027 Duramax turn up a mix of numbers, because Chevrolet now sells two very different diesels under that name. Here is which is which, what has been released and what has not. It is the diesel behind our Silverado 3500HD trucks. The three Duramax numbers side by side Engine Truck Power Torque Status 6.6L Duramax turbo-diesel V8 (L5P) 2026 Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD 470 hp at 2,800 rpm 975 lb-ft at 1,600 rpm 2026 ratings Duramax turbo-diesel V8 (L6P) 2027 Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD Not released Not released New for 2027 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel 2027 Silverado 1500 305 hp 495 lb-ft Released by GM Only one of the three rows is a 2027 rating, and it belongs to the half-ton truck. The HD diesel: what L6P means The 2027 ordering documents for the Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD list the available diesel as L6P, a Duramax turbo-diesel V8. It replaces the L5P used in the 2026 truck. The documents give no displacement, horsepower or torque, and the standard gas engine moves from L8T to L8S at the same time. A new code means GM changed the engine in some way. It does not say the engine is larger or more powerful. Industry reports have speculated about a larger displacement and GM has not confirmed it, so we would treat any 2027 number as a guess until GM releases the ratings. The 2027 Silverado 2500HD guide covers what else carries over. What the 2026 6.6L Duramax delivers Power: 470 horsepower at 2,800 rpm and 975 lb-ft of torque at 1,600 rpm. Transmission: Allison 10-speed automatic. Towing, Silverado 3500 HD: up to 36,000 pounds on a gooseneck, 32,000 on a fifth-wheel and 20,000 on a conventional hitch, with the Max Trailering Package. Towing, Silverado 2500 HD: up to 20,000 pounds conventional and 22,050 on a gooseneck or fifth-wheel, with the Max Trailering Package. Warranty: the Duramax powertrain is covered for 5 years or 100,000 miles. Fluids: the Duramax uses diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), which you keep topped up. The 2027 ordering documents tie the Max Trailering Package to the Duramax and the gooseneck/fifth-wheel prep package, the same pairing as 2026. Our 2500HD vs 3500HD comparison shows how the two trucks split those ratings. The 3.0L Duramax in the 2027 Silverado 1500 The redesigned 2027 Silverado 1500 offers a 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel rated at 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft of torque. It tows up to 12,000 pounds in a crew cab 4WD with the Max Trailering Package. It is not an HD engine, and it is a different engine from the 6.6L-class diesel in the 2500 HD and 3500 HD. Our 2027 Silverado 1500 towing guide and the specs page cover the 1500. Which Duramax fits your work? Daily driving and lighter trailers: the 3.0L in the 1500, up to 12,000 pounds. Heavy trailers: above the 1500's top rating of 13,700 pounds, which comes with the 5.7L V8, you are shopping a 2500 HD or 3500 HD. Gooseneck and fifth-wheel work: the 3500 HD, especially the dually, which carries the 36,000-pound rating. Not sure where your load falls? The 3500HD LTZ review and the 3500 DRW page show what the HD trucks look like, and the 3500 HD dually guide covers the towing by hitch. When will the new Duramax arrive? GM Authority reports 2027 Silverado HD production starting in November, with the Crew Cab first, and calls the dates tentative. GM has not announced when trucks reach dealers. Trucks with the 2026 Duramax are what our Bentonville, Springdale and Fayetteville pages cover today, and the chassis cab page covers work-body builds. Common questions about the 2027 Duramax What are the 2027 Duramax specs? There are two 2027 Duramax diesels. The 3.0L Duramax in the 2027 Silverado 1500 makes 305 horsepower and 495 lb-ft of torque. The Duramax in the 2027 Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD carries a new engine code, L6P, and GM has not released its horsepower, torque or displacement. Is the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD Duramax bigger than the 2026? GM has not said. The 2026 engine is a 6.6L V8 making 470 horsepower and 975 lb-ft. The 2027 ordering documents list a Duramax turbo-diesel V8 with a new code and no displacement, so we will not guess. What is the L6P Duramax? L6P is the 2027 engine code for the available Duramax turbo-diesel V8 in the Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD. It replaces the L5P used in the 2026 truck. Does the 2027 Duramax make more than 470 horsepower? That has not been announced. 470 horsepower and 975 lb-ft are 2026 ratings, and any site listing them as 2027 specs is carrying the 2026 numbers forward. How much can a Duramax Silverado 3500 HD tow? The 2026 3500 HD tows up to 36,000 pounds on a gooseneck hitch, 32,000 on a fifth-wheel and 20,000 on a conventional hitch with the Duramax and Max Trailering Package. 2027 ratings have not been released. Which 2027 Duramax should I choose? The 3.0L Duramax in the 2027 Silverado 1500 suits daily driving and trailers up to 12,000 pounds. Above the 1500's 13,700-pound top rating, you are shopping a heavy-duty truck with the 6.6L-class Duramax. Tell us what you tow and how often, and we will point you to the right engine.

2027 Chevy Silverado 3500 HD Dually at George Nunnally, NWA Originally published March 21, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 2026 Silverado 3500 HD dually shown. The 2027 keeps the same cabs, beds and transmission. The Short Version The 2027 Silverado 3500 HD dually is the current heavy-duty truck with new engine codes, not a redesign: the gas V8 is now listed as L8S and the Duramax turbo-diesel V8 as L6P. GM has not released 2027 towing, payload or pricing. The 2026 3500 HD tows up to 36,000 lb on a gooseneck, 32,000 lb on a fifth-wheel and 20,000 lb conventionally, with the Duramax and Max Trailering Package. The 2026 3500 HD carries up to 7,234 lb of payload and starts at $46,800 for the Work Truck. Trims are Work Truck, LT, LTZ and High Country. If you pull a gooseneck flatbed, a stock trailer or an equipment hauler around Northwest Arkansas, the 3500 HD dually is the truck you are shopping. Here is what we can say about the 2027, and the 2026 numbers that show where it stands. Our 2026 Silverado 3500HD page covers the range. What is a dually, and who needs one? A dually has dual rear wheels: four tires on the rear axle instead of two. The wider, steadier stance is what lets a 3500 HD carry and pull the heaviest loads, and it is why the top towing number belongs to the dually. The tradeoff is width: the fenders are wider, so tight lots and narrow gates take more care. Our 2026 Silverado 3500 DRW page shows current dually trucks. A dually makes sense for fifth-wheel campers, large livestock and horse trailers, equipment haulers and anyone who tows near the limit on a regular basis. If your trailer weighs well under 20,000 pounds, a single-rear-wheel 3500 HD or a 2500HD may fit better. 2027 vs 2026: what changes The 2027 ordering documents include the Silverado 3500 HD and the 3500 HD chassis cab. They carry the same cabs, beds and transmission as 2026, with new engine codes: L8S for the standard gas V8 and L6P for the available Duramax turbo-diesel V8. They replace the L8T and L5P. GM has not released horsepower, torque, displacement, towing, payload or pricing for the 2027 trucks, so any 2027 figure you see elsewhere is a 2026 number carried forward. The 2027 2500HD guide covers what carries over, and the 2027 Duramax guide covers the diesel. 2026 Silverado 3500 HD towing by hitch type Hitch type Maximum towing Configuration Gooseneck 36,000 lb Duramax, Regular Cab long bed dually 2WD, Max Trailering Package Fifth-wheel 32,000 lb Duramax dually with the Max Trailering Package Conventional 20,000 lb Duramax Gooseneck, gas 6.6L V8 19,080 lb Gas engine maximum The gross combined weight rating tops out at 43,900 pounds with the Duramax dually and Max Trailering Package. The maximum figures apply to particular cab, drive and hitch combinations, so the truck you buy may be rated lower. The 2027 ordering documents tie the Max Trailering Package to the Duramax and the gooseneck/fifth-wheel prep package. Payload and pricing Payload: up to 7,234 pounds on the 2026 3500 HD, depending on configuration. Price: the 2026 3500 HD starts at $46,800 for the Work Truck, excluding destination. That is the starting price, not the price of a Duramax dually with the higher trims. GM has not released 2027 prices. Prefer to see the trucks? The 3500HD LTZ review walks through the LTZ trim, and we have local pages for Bentonville, Springdale and Fayetteville. Camioneta 3500HD en español is also available. Trims Trim Notes Work Truck Base trim; the $46,800 starting price is for this trim LT Adds the 13.4-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch driver display LTZ Sits between the LT and High Country; the LTZ review covers it in detail High Country Top of the lineup The ZR2 is a 2500HD trim and is not offered on the 3500 HD. Dually or chassis cab? If you plan to mount a flatbed, dump body or service body, a chassis cab is the usual starting point, and our 3500 chassis cab page shows those. If you want a factory pickup bed, you want the dually pickup above. Buy a 2026 or wait for the 2027? Buy a 2026 if you need to be pulling soon and want ratings you can check today. Wait if the engine is the deciding factor and you want to see what the new Duramax makes. Industry reports put 2027 HD production in November with no on-sale date from GM, so we would not plan a purchase around a date that has not been announced. Common questions about the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD dually Is the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD dually redesigned? No. It is the current-generation heavy-duty truck with new engine codes: L8S for the gas V8 and L6P for the Duramax diesel. A full redesign is reported for the 2029 model year. How much can the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD dually tow? GM has not released 2027 towing ratings. The 2026 3500 HD tows up to 36,000 pounds on a gooseneck hitch, 32,000 on a fifth-wheel hitch and 20,000 on a conventional hitch, all with the Duramax and Max Trailering Package. What is the difference between a dually and a single-rear-wheel 3500 HD? A dually has four tires on the rear axle instead of two. That wider, steadier stance suits the heaviest trailers and loads, and the 36,000-pound gooseneck rating is a dually figure. The tradeoff is a wider truck. Do I need the Duramax diesel to reach the maximum tow rating? For the 2026 figures, yes. The 36,000, 32,000 and 20,000-pound ratings are Duramax figures with the Max Trailering Package. With the gas V8, the 2026 3500 HD tops out at 19,080 pounds on a gooseneck. How much does the 2027 Silverado 3500 HD cost? GM has not released 2027 pricing. The 2026 Silverado 3500 HD starts at $46,800 for the Work Truck, excluding destination. Does the Silverado 3500 HD come in a ZR2? No. The ZR2 is a 2500HD trim. The 3500 HD comes as the Work Truck, LT, LTZ and High Country. Bring your trailer's loaded weight and hitch type to George Nunnally Chevrolet at 2700 SE Moberly Ln in Bentonville and we will match it to a 3500 HD. Call (479) 319-2494 or contact us.

2027 Chevrolet Camaro Release Date and Key Updates in Northwest Arkansas What is confirmed so far · Originally published May 2, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 The Short Answer There is no 2027 Chevrolet Camaro. Chevrolet ended Camaro production after the 2024 model year and has not announced a new one. Press reports say General Motors approved a successor, with production reported for late 2027 at the Lansing Grand River plant in Michigan. Late-2027 production would make it a 2028 model. Reports since August point to a 2029 model. Chevrolet has confirmed neither. Engine, body style, price and on-sale date are all unannounced. Nothing can be ordered or reserved yet. If you have been searching for a 2027 Camaro from Rogers, Springdale, Fayetteville or Siloam Springs, here is where things really stand: the nameplate is expected back, but Chevrolet has not put a date, a price or a spec sheet on it. This page separates what Chevrolet has said from what the automotive press has reported, and it will be updated the day that changes. Is there a 2027 Chevrolet Camaro? No. The sixth-generation Camaro, sold from the 2016 model year, ended production after 2024, and there is no 2027 model year Camaro in Chevrolet's lineup. The 2027 Camaro you see in search results is a guess at when a new one might land, and the guess has been drifting later as more reporting comes in. 2027 Camaro release date: what has been reported Everything in this table comes from press reports. None of it comes from Chevrolet. What What was reported Status Approval GM has greenlit a successor (Automotive News, April 2026) Reported Where it is built Lansing Grand River, Michigan, where the last Camaro was built Reported Production start Late 2027 Reported Model year 2028 in the April reports; some August reports say 2029 Reports disagree Platform An updated version of GM's rear-wheel-drive Alpha platform Reported Chevrolet announcement None. No reveal, no spec sheet, no pricing. Not announced The practical takeaway: even on the earliest reported schedule, a new Camaro would not reach a showroom before 2028, and the later reports push it further out. 2027 Camaro engine and specs: what we know Chevrolet has not announced a Camaro engine, horsepower figure or transmission. You will see numbers online for a "2027 Camaro SS" or a base turbo four, and every one of them is a prediction. We are not publishing any of them here. What is confirmed is the engine that press speculation keeps pointing to. Chevrolet's new 6.7L LS6 small-block V8 is in the 2027 Corvette Grand Sport, where it is rated at 535 horsepower and 520 lb-ft of torque. Whether it ever goes into a Camaro has not been announced. If you want to see what that engine does in a car you can buy, the 2027 Corvette specs and trims pages have every number. Will the new Camaro be a two-door or a four-door? Reports do not agree. Some coverage expects a traditional two-door coupe. Other reports, including the original April account, raised the possibility of a four-door body sharing its platform with a new sedan. Chevrolet has confirmed neither, so treat any body style you read as unsettled. 2027 Camaro price There is no price. Chevrolet has not released a starting MSRP, and any figure you see is an estimate. When Chevrolet publishes real pricing we will put it here, with the source. Can you order or reserve a new Camaro? Not yet. There is no order guide, no trim list and no price to order against, so there is nothing to reserve. If you want to hear the moment Chevrolet announces something, tell our team and we will contact you first. Chevrolet performance you can buy today If the reason you want a Camaro is a rear-drive V8 with real power, two options are on the road now. Corvette.

Automotive News reported in April 2026 that GM approved a successor. Chevrolet has not made its own announcement. When will the new Camaro be released? Chevrolet has not given a date. Reports point to production starting in late 2027, which would make it a 2028 model, and some more recent reports suggest a 2029 model. Will the new Camaro have a V8? Chevrolet has not said. The V8 that press coverage mentions is the 6.7L LS6 now in the Corvette Grand Sport, but that is speculation for the Camaro. Will the new Camaro be electric? Reports expect a gas-powered, rear-wheel-drive car rather than an EV. The powertrain is unconfirmed. How much will the new Camaro cost? Nothing has been announced. We will post the price here as soon as Chevrolet publishes one. George Nunnally Chevrolet is at 2700 SE Moberly Ln in Bentonville, just off I-49.

Is There a New 2026 Chevy Camaro? Originally published February 16, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026 2027 Corvette ZR1 shown. The Corvette is Chevrolet's rear-drive V8 sports car today. The Short Version There is no 2026 Chevy Camaro. The sixth-generation Camaro ended with the 2024 model year. Chevrolet announced the end of the Camaro in March 2023, and the last one was built on December 14, 2023. The 2024 Camaro Collector's Edition was the send-off: 1,335 were built. A "2026 Camaro for sale" is a used 2016 to 2024 Camaro. The new rear-drive V8 Chevrolet sells is the Corvette. Press reports say GM approved a successor. Chevrolet has not confirmed a date, price or specs. If you have been searching for a 2026 Camaro in Bentonville, Rogers or Springdale, here is the straight answer: it does not exist, and here is what to do instead. Why there is no 2026 Camaro Chevrolet announced in March 2023 that the Camaro would retire at the end of the 2024 model year. Production of the 2024 model began that August at the Lansing Grand River plant in Michigan, and the final sixth-generation Camaro rolled off the line on December 14, 2023. No 2025 or 2026 Camaro was built, and none is listed on chevrolet.com. The last Camaro: the 2024 model year The 2024 Camaro was sold as a coupe and a convertible in the RS, SS and ZL1 versions, and Chevrolet offered a Collector's Edition package on those. GM Authority counts 1,335 Collector's Edition Camaros built. Those are the newest Camaros there will be for a while, which is why so many people are shopping them now. What about all the 2026 Camaro pictures online? Any 2026 Camaro image or spec sheet you find is a rendering or a guess. Chevrolet has published no 2026 Camaro engine, price or photo, because there is no 2026 Camaro to photograph. How to get a Camaro today Buy used.

Blog Towing at Beaver Lake with the 2027 Chevy Tahoe What actually changes when you point a loaded trailer at the ramp, and which 2027 Tahoe configuration gets you there without guessing. View Tahoe Inventory Quick Answer Maximum towing is 8,400 lbs, on the 5.3L V8 with rear-wheel drive and the Max Trailering Package. Step up to the 6.2L V8, add 4WD, or choose the Duramax diesel, and the ceiling moves to 8,200 lbs. The Max Trailering Package (standard from LS up) adds the in-vehicle trailering app and up to 14 camera views for backing down a ramp. For 2027, Super Cruise with trailering is available on the diesel for the first time, not just the gas V8s. Beaver Lake has ramps at Prairie Creek, Horseshoe Bend, War Eagle and a half dozen smaller launches, and on a busy Saturday every one of them has a line of trucks and SUVs backing trailers down concrete that gets steeper than it looks from the parking lot. What actually separates a smooth launch from a stressful one has less to do with horsepower on a spec sheet and more to do with which specific Tahoe configuration you're driving, because "the Tahoe tows 8,400 lbs" is true and also not the whole answer. The Number That Matters Isn't the Headline Number Chevrolet's 8,400-lb maximum belongs specifically to the 5.3L V8, rear-wheel drive, with the Max Trailering Package, not to every Tahoe on the lot. Step up to the 6.2L V8, and the number moves to 8,200 lbs. The Duramax diesel also tops out at 8,200 lbs. Add 4WD to either engine and the same 8,200-lb ceiling applies. That's a small gap on paper, but it's the difference between a rating you can plan around and a rating you assumed. Before you shop a boat or a travel trailer against a number you saw online, confirm which drivetrain that number actually applies to, the full breakdown is on the Tahoe specs page. What 5,000-8,400 Lbs Actually Covers at This Lake A bass boat or a small pontoon, loaded with fuel and gear, typically runs well under the Tahoe's ceiling in either drivetrain configuration, that's comfortable towing, not maximum towing. A mid-size pontoon or a travel trailer built for a family of four starts to push into the range where the 200-lb gap between 8,200 and 8,400 actually matters, and where the diesel's low-end torque (495 lb-ft, more than either gas V8) makes the pull up the ramp and the merge back onto AR-12 feel less like work. If the plan is bigger than that, a large fifth-wheel or a heavy dual-axle trailer, that's honestly outside what any of the Tahoe's three engines are built for, and a heavier-duty truck is the right tool. Sustained Grades Are the Real Test, Not the Ramp The launch itself is a five-minute event. The mile of sustained climb on the interstate south of Bentonville, or the grade coming back up from the lake with a loaded trailer behind you, is where a tow rating actually gets tested, and it's where the gap between the 5.3L V8's 355 hp/383 lb-ft and the Duramax's 305 hp/495 lb-ft shows up as a real difference in how hard the engine has to work. Match the trailer to the rating you actually have, not to how the tow felt on flat pavement in the parking lot. Why the Max Trailering Package Is Worth Confirming, Not Assuming Every Tahoe from LS up ships with a Class IV hitch, but the Max Trailering Package is what gets you the 8,400-lb ceiling, the in-vehicle trailering app, and up to 14 camera views for backing a trailer down a ramp without a spotter standing in the water. For 2027, Super Cruise with trailering is also available on the diesel for the first time, which means hands-free assistance on the interstate stretch to the lake is no longer exclusive to the gas engines. Worth asking about specifically if that's part of what you're shopping for. Full trim-by-trim equipment is on the Tahoe trims page. Cargo for the Rest of the Trip Towing capacity gets the headline, but the second question every lake trip actually asks is where the cooler, life jackets and folded bimini top go once the boat's in the water. With the third row up for passengers, the Tahoe still carries 25.5 cu ft behind it, enough for a day's gear without anyone repacking the garage first, and without giving up seats to do it. Keep the Drivetrain Ready for Trailer Season A season of loaded launches and steep interstate grades is harder on a truck than daily commuting, so towing regularly is a good reason to stay ahead of the recommended service schedule rather than push it. Answers to more pricing, trim and capability questions beyond towing are on the Tahoe FAQ page. If You're Deciding Between the Tahoe and the Traverse for This The Traverse's 5,000-lb rating, properly equipped, genuinely covers a lot of the boats that go into Beaver Lake on a normal weekend, it's not a compromise choice for a smaller boat. But once you're near or past that number, the difference isn't marginal; it's the difference between towing within the rating and towing past it. The full side-by-side is on the Tahoe vs Traverse comparison. See It in Person George Nunnally Chevrolet is at 2700 SE Moberly Ln in Bentonville, a short run from I-49 and an easy stop on the way to or from the lake.

If the family outgrew a two-row crossover, the 2027 Chevrolet Traverse is where most Northwest Arkansas households land: an MSRP of $40,800, seating for up to eight, 98 cubic feet with the rear rows down, and 5,000 pounds of towing properly equipped, all on a midsize footprint that parks like a large crossover. A full-size SUV is the right call for a specific set of families, and the numbers below say exactly which ones. George Nunnally Chevrolet sells both, so this is a sizing question rather than a sales pitch: here is what each one gives you, and where the gap between them is real. The 2027 Traverse overview has the long version of the Traverse side. Quick Answer 2027 Traverse starts at an MSRP of $40,800, before the $1,995 destination charge; the 2026 Tahoe LS starts at $60,700. Traverse seats up to 8 and holds 98 cu ft maximum; Tahoe seats up to 9 and holds 122.7 cu ft. Traverse tows 5,000 lbs properly equipped, with the included trailering equipment, on LT, Z71 and RS. EPA combined: 22 mpg front-drive Traverse against 17 mpg for a 5.3L V8 rear-drive Tahoe, per fueleconomy.gov. Both carry the same 17.7-inch diagonal touchscreen as standard equipment. The matchup at a glance What you are comparing 2027 Traverse 2026 Tahoe Starting MSRP from $40,800 from $60,700 Engine 2.5L turbocharged four, 328 hp and 326 lb-ft 5.3L EcoTec3 V8, 355 hp and 383 lb-ft Seating 7, or 8 on the LT Up to 9, with the front bench on the LS Maximum cargo volume 98 cu ft 122.7 cu ft EPA combined 22 mpg front-drive, 21 all-wheel drive 17 mpg, 5.3L V8 rear-drive Touchscreen 17.7-inch diagonal, standard 17.7-inch diagonal, standard Maximum towing 5,000 lbs properly equipped, with the included trailering equipment, on LT, Z71 and RS Body-on-frame, built around heavier trailers Every Traverse figure above is on the 2027 Traverse specs page with its configuration attached, and the full spec-for-spec version of this matchup lives on Chevy Tahoe vs Traverse. Where the Traverse wins for a growing family Three places, and they are the three a family actually feels. The price of entry. Nearly twenty thousand dollars separates the two starting points, and another eight hundred separates the destination charges. That gap buys a lot of car seats, or it moves you from a base full-size to a well-equipped midsize with hands-free highway driving. The trims page lays out what each step up the Traverse range adds and who it suits. The fuel bill. Five miles per gallon combined is not a rounding difference over a school year. Northwest Arkansas runs almost all of its north-south traffic through one interstate corridor, and a family doing the I-49 commute plus two round trips a week to practice is living in the combined number, not the highway one. The footprint. Six and a half inches shorter and nearly six inches narrower with the mirrors out sounds academic until you are backing into a parking deck on a Saturday, or squeezing past a row of parked cars near the Razorback Regional Greenway trailheads. It is also the difference between fitting a single garage bay comfortably and folding the mirrors every night. The Traverse research hub collects the rest of the detail if you want to go deeper on any one of those three. Where the Tahoe wins Three places, and all three are real. Volume. 122.7 cubic feet against 98 with the rows down. If you routinely travel seven-up with luggage for a week, the Tahoe carries it and the Traverse asks you to pack tighter or use a roof box. The ninth seat. The Tahoe LS offers seating for up to nine with its front bench. The Traverse tops out at eight. Heavy trailers. The Tahoe is body-on-frame, and its standard 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 makes 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft. That architecture is what a large travel trailer or a car hauler is built around, and it is the reason the answer flips to full-size once the trailer goes past what the Traverse is rated for. The honest tie Two things people expect to differ and do not. Seven or eight seats. Both do it. The Traverse LT with the second-row bench seats eight, the same as most Tahoe trims. If the requirement is eight belts rather than nine, this is not a reason to spend twenty thousand dollars more. Third-row access. Row two slides forward on every Traverse with the child seat left in place, so getting a kid into row three does not mean dismantling the middle of the car. That is the mechanism that decides whether row three gets used on a school morning, and it is present on the trim with the $40,800 starting MSRP. The service schedule is the same across the range too, which keeps the running cost predictable whichever trim you land on. The screen. A 17.7-inch touchscreen with Google built-in is standard on all four Traverse trims. It is the same size the Tahoe LS carries. The local math Here is what this looks like on a real Northwest Arkansas week. Two adults, three kids, an I-49 commute from Rogers or Springdale, a Saturday at Arvest Ballpark, and a boat that goes in the water from May through September. The same picture holds for a family running US-412 in from Siloam Springs or the interstate up from Fayetteville. The boat is a bass boat or a small pontoon, so loaded on its trailer it stays under the Traverse's 5,000-pound properly-equipped rating. That family is a Traverse family, and the money left over covers the all-wheel drive and the Super Cruise plan. Change one variable, a travel trailer heavier than the Traverse's 5,000-pound rating, and the answer flips to full-size. The trailer is what decides this, not the number of kids. And weigh the trailer loaded rather than empty, because the long climbs on the interstate south of Fayetteville ask far more of a drivetrain than a flat test tow suggests. So which one should you buy? Your situation Buy this Three kids, a carpool, a commute, no trailer Traverse LT with all-wheel drive, from $42,800 Same, plus a bass boat or a small pontoon Traverse Z71, from $49,100, for the twin-clutch all-wheel drive on a wet ramp An hour of interstate every day Traverse RS, from $55,800, with standard hands-free Super Cruise A travel trailer over the 5,000-pound properly-equipped rating Tahoe, for the body-on-frame platform Nine people, regularly Tahoe LS with the front bench See every 2027 Traverse in stock Book a test drive How to settle it in one afternoon Drive both back to back on the same afternoon. The size difference reads as a rounding error on paper and is obvious from the driver's seat inside two miles, and it is the only part of this decision a table cannot settle. Bring the car seats. Two things worth doing first: start a pre-approval so you know your terms before you pick a trim, and get the trade appraised, because on a twenty-thousand-dollar spread the trade often decides which side of it you land on. Questions we get on this one Is the Traverse big enough for three car seats? Yes. Second-row shoulder room is 62.2 inches, within a tenth of an inch of the front row, and Smart Slide seats let you reach row three without pulling a seat out. Order the LT with the second-row bench and you get an eighth belt. When is a trailer too heavy for a Traverse? Above 5,000 pounds. That is the rating on the LT, Z71 and RS, properly equipped with the included trailering equipment, and past it a body-on-frame full-size is the right vehicle. The full Tahoe vs Traverse comparison works through the rest of it. Does the Traverse cost less to service than a full-size SUV? It runs a four-cylinder rather than a V8, on the same 7,500-mile oil and rotation schedule, and the first maintenance visit is covered by Chevrolet inside the first year. Warranty terms run 3 years or 36,000 miles bumper-to-bumper and 5 years or 60,000 miles on the powertrain. Which Traverse trim has hands-free driver assistance? Two of the four: the RS and the High Country include it as standard equipment for 2027, each with a 3-year OnStar Super Cruise plan. It is available elsewhere in the lineup. Where can I see both in Rogers or Springdale? Both are on the lot at George Nunnally Chevrolet, 2700 SE Moberly Ln, a short run down the interstate and not much further from Siloam Springs.

Order a 2027 Silverado 1500 or Buy a 2026? Vehicle shown with available equipment. Image supplied by the manufacturer. The Short Version The all-new 2027 Silverado 1500 arrives at the end of 2026; you can reserve a build now. 2026 Silverados are on the ground in Bentonville today, often with incentives. Buy from stock if you need a truck now; reserve a 2027 if you want the redesign. Bring your loaded trailer weight and we will spec the right truck around it. There is a short window every few years when a truck buyer in Northwest Arkansas has two good options at once, and we are heading into it. The all-new 2027 Silverado 1500 is a ground-up redesign arriving at the end of 2026 and you can reserve one now, while the 2026 Silverados are still on the lot at George Nunnally Chevrolet in Bentonville with their own incentives. Whether you reserve the new one or buy off the ground comes down to how much you want the redesign versus how soon you need the truck. Here is how we talk it through with people who come in from Rogers, Springdale and Fayetteville. Buy from stock if you need a truck now Most people who need a truck need it for two or three specific things. If your list is "crew cab, four-wheel drive, tows a boat to Beaver Lake, seats the family," we can almost certainly hand you keys to a 2026 Silverado 1500 that does all of it this week. Buying from stock is faster, it usually carries an incentive, and you get to sit in the exact truck before you sign. If that is you, the 2026 Silverado 1500 guide is the place to start. Reserve a 2027 if the redesign is what you want Reserving makes sense when the new truck's changes are the reason you are buying. For 2027 that is a real list: two brand-new small-block V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L that Chevrolet calls the most powerful naturally-aspirated V8 in the half-ton class; a fully digital cockpit with a 16.3-inch screen; and available Super Cruise that keeps working while you tow. If a specific new engine or the redesigned interior is what you are after, reserve the build rather than waiting for the right one to land. The 2027 Silverado 1500 overview lays out the whole lineup, and the trim guide walks the seven trims from Work Truck to ZR2 and High Country. What actually changed for 2027 Enough that a 2026 spec sheet is not a 2027 spec sheet. The Silverado is all-new for 2027 — new styling, a new digital interior, a revised seven-trim lineup that renames the LT simply Silverado, and the two new V8s replacing the old 5.3L and 6.2L. Pricing, EPA fuel economy and final tow ratings are published by Chevrolet closer to the on-sale date, and we post each confirmed number the day it lands. The 2027 specs page tracks what is official as it firms up. None of that makes a 2026 a worse truck — it is still the one we can hand you keys to this week. The towing question worth settling up front If towing is why you are buying, get it right before you order. On a half-ton, the tow rating is set by engine, cab, bed and axle together, not by the badge on the tailgate, so two trucks that look alike can be rated differently. The 2027's official ratings publish at launch, and the Duramax diesel and new 6.6L V8 are the tow-focused engines. If you already know what your loaded boat or camper weighs, bring us that number and we will build the spec backwards from it. Our towing guide covers the Max Trailering package and the segment-exclusive Super Cruise hands-free trailering. The winter question nobody asks until January If you buy in the autumn, your truck's first season is an Ozark winter, and that is worth ten minutes of planning. I-49 gets treated through the freeze-thaw stretches and a truck parked outside collects that brine spray. The practical habit is washing the undercarriage through the salt season rather than waiting for spring. It is also worth setting up the service schedule early, especially if you tow — towing brings oil and driveline service forward. Our service and maintenance page covers what the truck needs and when. How to decide in one visit Come into George Nunnally Chevrolet at 2700 SE Moberly Ln in Bentonville, just off I-49. We will put you in a 2026 Silverado so the current truck is not an abstraction, walk you through what the 2027 redesign adds, and either write up a truck from stock or start your 2027 reservation. Either way you leave knowing which truck is yours. Call (479) 319-2494 or contact us to set it up. Still comparing the current truck? The 2027 Silverado 1500 FAQs answer the questions that come up most.

Quick answer: the 2026 Traverse as a tow vehicle The 2026 Chevrolet Traverse is rated at 5,000 pounds properly equipped, and the trailering equipment is standard on every trim rather than an option you hunt for. The 2.5L turbocharged four-cylinder makes 328 horsepower and 326 lb-ft on regular 87-octane unleaded, which is what makes that rating comfortable rather than theoretical. It still carries the family: seven seats standard, eight on the LT with the available second-row bench, and 22.9 cubic feet of cargo behind the third row. EPA estimates are 20 city / 26 highway / 22 combined in front-drive and 20 / 24 / 21 with all-wheel drive. The Traverse starts at $40,800 before a $1,995 destination charge. George Nunnally Chevrolet stocks them in Bentonville. Call (479) 319-2494. A 5,000-pound rating puts a lot of NWA weekends in reach of a 2026 Chevrolet Traverse: a small travel trailer, a teardrop or hybrid camper, a pair of side-by-sides on a utility trailer, or a boat. What it does not do is answer the second question, which is whether the same vehicle still works as the family car on Monday. Here is what the rating actually covers here, and what to check before you hitch up. The Traverse research hub has the full set of pages. See Every 2026 Traverse in Stock How much can a Traverse actually pull? 5,000 pounds, properly equipped. That figure holds across the lineup because the trailering equipment is standard on every trim, so it is not a number that depends on which box you ticked at order time. The engine is what makes it usable. The 2.5L turbocharged four makes 328 horsepower and 326 lb-ft, and torque is the part that matters on a hill with a trailer behind you. The specifications page has the full numbers, and the model overview is the plain-language version of the whole car. What a 5,000-pound rating covers in NWA More than most families need. A single-axle travel trailer, a teardrop or a hybrid pop-up sits well inside it, as does a ski boat on a single-axle trailer, and either one gets to Beaver Lake or a campsite at Hobbs State Park without drama. Devil's Den is the harder run, because the I-49 grades south of Fayetteville are the real test of any tow vehicle in this region. The honest planning number is not the trailer's dry weight, it is the loaded weight with water, gear and bikes on the back. Build in the margin and a Traverse handles a Northwest Arkansas camping season comfortably. If your trailer is a dual-axle bunkhouse and the loaded number is climbing past the rating, the Traverse versus Tahoe comparison is the right next read, because that is the step up this market usually makes. Do you need to option anything? For the tow rating itself, no. Trailering equipment is standard across the range, which is unusual in this class and worth knowing before you start pricing packages on a rival. What is worth optioning is what makes the miles easier. Super Cruise, the hands-free driver assistance system, is standard on the High Country and RS and available on the LT and Z71 through the Enhanced Driving Package, and a long haul down the interstate is exactly where you notice it. The trim levels page shows what each rung includes. What towing means for people and gear This is where a three-row earns its place over a truck. The Traverse seats seven as standard and eight on the LT with the available second-row bench, and it holds 22.9 cubic feet behind the third row, 56.6 behind the second and 98 cubic feet with both rows folded. That is a full family plus a week of camping kit, before the trailer is even attached. Weight still has to be watched: GVWR is 6,173 pounds and an LT front-drive weighs 4,504 pounds at the curb, which leaves roughly 1,669 pounds for people, cargo and trailer tongue weight combined. That is the number that quietly decides how much you can pack. The cargo and seating page breaks the space down row by row. Which Traverse suits a towing family in NWA? The LT is the volume answer and the only trim that seats eight, opening at $40,800 before the $1,995 destination charge. The Z71 adds all-wheel drive as standard, 18-inch all-terrain wheels and 7.8 inches of ground clearance against the standard 6.8, which is the trim for gravel campground approaches. The RS and High Country are the equipment-led rungs and bring Super Cruise as standard. Cross-shopping? The Traverse versus GMC Acadia comparison covers the closest relative, and the Traverse versus Equinox page is the one to read if you are still deciding whether you need a third row at all. Browse Traverse LT and Z71 Stock Schedule a Test Drive Hitching up in NWA Bring the trailer and we will weigh the real question with you. We are at 2700 SE Moberly Ln, a couple of minutes off I-49, and the run south from here is the same road your camper will see, so a test drive tells you more than a spec sheet does. The 39-foot turning circle is the other thing to try in our lot, because campground loops are tighter than interstates. Ownership questions are worth asking on the day: the maintenance schedule covers service intervals, and towing does change how often some of them come around. When you are ready, value your trade or get pre-approved. 2026 Traverse towing questions How much can a 2026 Chevrolet Traverse tow? 5,000 pounds, properly equipped, and the trailering equipment is standard on every trim.

All-wheel drive is standard on the Z71 and available elsewhere, and it changes EPA estimates to 20 city / 24 highway / 21 combined against 20 / 26 / 22 in front-drive. How many people does it seat? Seven as standard, and eight on the LT with the available second-row bench. The Z71, RS and High Country seat seven.

Pricing is starting MSRP and excludes tax, title, license and dealer fees; the destination freight charge is stated separately and the dealer sets the final price. Trailering figures are maximums for a properly equipped vehicle and vary by configuration and equipment. Fuel-economy figures are EPA estimates and will vary with driving.
