Do you think it's slipping?
Do the RPM go up but the truck doesn't move when in gear?
If the answer is yes than transmission is junk.
If truck drives ok without the trailer than something with the turbos system is going bad

Yes i think it is slipping very little when I slow down make a turn and get back in the throttle it seems like it's not changing gears fast enough but I back out of it and it will change and go on and when it stopped pulling on the hill with the trailer it would rev up but would t go any where unroll I backed down the hill
