Whats the weight limit on a 95 Chevy Cheyenne truck. I'm wanting to tow a 16 foot trailer, not sure of the weight and a 1900 pound car.

1500, 2500 or 3500? V6 or V8?

Bare minimum you'd need is a 1500 V8. You should be okay.

8000 lbs as an absolute maximum, with a load distributing hitch and sway control + electric brakes.  

If your motor is tired, drop this to 5000.  

This figures largely depend on your rear-end gear ratio.

Ok it shouldn't be more than 4000 to 4500 pounds. Think its 2:73 gears, well close guess buzzed up the hi way 135 to 140mph before.
