I put one in my truck. You pretty much have to if you want your brakes to last with 2 axle trailers.

My camper weighs around 3500 lbs. and I just put it into tow/haul mode. Only thing is when in overdrive any slight hill will make the engine downshift so a 5.3 will probably be better to go with towing.

But the newer 4.8s got the vortec max so im not sure if they got any more power out of them.
