2026 GMC Sierra 1500 · The Max Trailering Package

Which 2026 GMC Sierra 1500 trims have the Max Trailering Package?

Three of the eight trims confirmed. The is optional on the SLE, Elevation and SLT. Our data doesn't verify it on the Pro, AT4, Denali, AT4X and Denali Ultimate. We don't have every option price, so we can't say which Sierra with it costs least.

Our Sierra data has eight 2026 Sierra 1500 on the Crew Cab short bed, their modeled engines, drive systems and core towing and off-road . It doesn't have other cabs and beds, HD or EV trucks, paint, dealer or every equipment package yet, so something missing from this page may still be offered.

Rating basis & limits

Conventional trailers only. GMC recommends 10–15% ; this example uses 10%, so a heavier tongue can exhaust sooner. Capacity and combined weight use GMC's nominal base equipment, not this truck's scale weight. Options, passengers and cargo reduce usable capacity. Check the actual door, receiver and Trailering Information labels, hitch instructions and owner's manual; this tool does not verify or hitch ratings.
