KJ went in today to have a diagnosis of the power lacking issue, turns out my torque converter clutch packs? ( sorry if this isn't the correct terminology) and possibly tranny packs are bad, and it's covered under warrenty but still!?

That what can happen when your lugging around all that extra weight,then add bigger tires and your trans does not like you very much.
