Default 2007 Suburban Underpowered

Hey everyone,

I have a 2007 Suburban LTZ with the 6.0 engine and almost 200K miles.

For some reason it seems very under-powered. The other day I was towing a boat up the mountain, my engine run screaming at 40 mph while I saw other suburbans with even larger loads cruising up the mountain at 60 or 65 mph.

Do you have any ideas why this might be the case?

Is there a way to see if the Catalytic converter is getting plugged? (I just passed the emissions test for the state of Utah last week)
