I think he said the hitch was a 16K Husky; doesn't mean his 5th wheel weighs 16K I hope. A 5'10" bed in a 1/2 ton? WOW!

An Andersen Ultimate might solve his problem perhaps; I will let the weight police jump on truck / camper combo after he lists this stuff in his signature or adds it to his post. I can't really visualize how he would tow a 5th wheel with a Silverado 1500 CC short bed but I haven't the savvy to enter the ranks of the weight police team so there you go!

Found this on a Chevy dealer website:
The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has a maximum towing capacity of 13,400 pounds, as well as a payload of up to 2,543 pounds.

Not sure how this claimed towing/payload stuff was computed; there are tons of options for the Silverado.
