Expert Reply:
According to the research I conducted, there were 4 different models of the 2003 GMC Envoy with 4-wheel drive. Both the SLE and SLT have a towing capacity of 5,200 pounds, 6,200 with weight distribution.
The XL SLE and XL SLT models have a towing capacity of 4,800 pounds, 7,000 pounds when using weight distribution. All of the models seem to be rather capable vehicles. You should also be able to find the towing capacities of your specific vehicle in the owners manual.
I have included a link below to our weight distribution FAQ article that explains what weight distribution is and the various components involved.
