Never heard of CVWR. Do you mean GVWR which stands for Gross Vehicle Weight Rating? It is the total amount the truck can weigh including fuel, passengers, and cargo.

What is the towing capacity of a 1999 Chevy Suburban 1500?

Your owners manual will contain the answer. If you don't have one, a salvage yard is a good place to find one. You can also order one from your local dealer. I've got the same question, but I know a few more variables. Engine size and rear differential ratio will affect towing capacity. So will other payload within the vehicle. I've seen 6000-7500 lbs listed on other sites, so there's a range of possibles. I got this from the Chevy website. They have vehicles specs archived back to 1996 Suburban 1500 2WD 350 CID V-8: Curb Weight - 4820 CVWR - 7700 Payload - 1980 Max Trailer - 6500 Suburban 2500 2WD: Curb Weight - 5286 CVWR - 8600 Payload - 3314 Max Trailer - 10000 The 350 has 255 HP and 330 ft-lbs. 6500-7000 lbs trailer sounds like about all you'd want to try with it.
