My truck seems to be having trouble while pulling my 25ft trailer with my kabota, weights close to 7-8 thousand (trailer+ Tractor). has no mods

Coolant level is fine, No CEL, No codes. Seems everything is fine unless I pull with it.

Take a look at the radiator and intercooler, check for bugs and clogged pieces of it. I usually like to clean mine with the powerwasher

I thought the turbo was the cause for this, i'm pretty sure its under warrantee.

I agree with checking the radiator, These trucks are pretty good most problem are caused by misuse/abuse/lack of maintenance.
