I dunno man, I hauled ~2700 lbs of 12' drywall sheets and lumber for my buddy this morning and it barely squatted more than a couple inches! I was impressed.

Dunno if your dad has the allison or the 4L80 trans, but I've been monitoring my 4L80 temps on my scan gauge. It struggles to get above 100 deg F in calm driving when it's cold out, even with my grill block.
