what do you need to add to get more towing capacity
I want to buy a 2006 silverado 2500hd to pull a 5th wheel rv. fully loaded the trailer would be about 12000lbs.  would this be sufficient or would i need to add something to beef up the towing capacity?

You should look for a bigger truck.  The 2500 is not suitable for this type of load.

You can handle it with a 2500HD no problem. Make sure you get the diesel. Airbags in the rear would also help
keep it level, and invest in a good electronic brake controller.
