Given that the 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500HD’s gaudy power numbers, the truck has figured out a way to harness all of this potency. Trailer Sway Control detects when a trailer is getting out of line, and applies the brakes to bring it back to your lane. Then, with dealer-installed features such as a fifth-wheel hitch, or the factory-installed Fifth-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package, you can be certain that your trailer is going exactly where you’d like it to.
