Hello Charles, thanks for reaching out. We do have wiring options for the 2017 Chevy Traverse, but I am not familiar with this 10 plug or slot plug you mentioned.
Does your Traverse have the factory tow package? If so, there would be a factory connector tucked up under the bumper near the right rear wheel. If you do have the tow package, the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package # 118271 is what you will need. This will give you a 7-way trailer connector.
If you do not have the factory tow package, you will need the Curt T-Connector # C56181. This is a 4-flat plug. If you need to upgrade that to a 7-way, you can use the Universal Installation Kit # ETBC7.
What kind of trailer are you going to be pulling? Does it have electric brakes?
