I have an 03 dodge 2500 diesel auto. I'm pulling a 32 foot travel trailer. Top speed at 62mph and floored.  What can I do to increase hp and torque.  I couldn't pass anyone in the freeway. Someone told me to get a triple disk converter. Help.

your truck should have enough power to pull that fifth wheel. i think something might be wrong with your truck

how well does it perform with no pulling good power all the way to redline, since you truck will be makeing more boost towing a heavy cargo it might be something wrong with your ele. boost wastegate
