Ten miles should be no problem for your truck. Yes the dry weight of the M is maybe 5400 lbs. But that counts no accessories like the lift all, the 13 gallons of trans fluid, the belt pulley and so on. A significant distance I would say is more than 100 miles. Although I would not want to go with the M behind your truck on a 100 mile trip very often. I hauled my MD 500 miles when I bought it. I have a 99 Silverado 2500 with the 6 liter V8 and a 5 speed manual. It handled it OK, but I would not want to go with a load any heavier than that. I was using a tag-a-long trailer I borrowed. I now have a gooseneck, but have not really tried it out yet. For any long hauls with a heavy load such as an M, you need a transmission cooler and an engine oil cooler. Those come with the trailering package on the Chevy Silverado. Good Luck !! Let me know how you get along with your M.
