No Acceleration

Hi I am new to post here and this has probably already been discussed but here goes.

I was wondering if all 6.0L had very poor acceleration from a dead stop mine would not pull its way out of a wet paper bag.

I heard with a trailer on the back its a struggle but empty you should be fine. I would check turbo plumbing or turbo for problems.

that thing is a real dog unless you apply the brakes, hit the throttle and allow the turbo to spool up, then release the brakes and off you go (LOL), that is the nature of the beast....good luck...
