need info about the tow package on my '07 silverado 4x4?

When towing our camper, with the tow package engaged, and going up any type of incline the the truck takes forever to change gears, and the rpm's go really high as a result, and the oil pressure raises too. The camper is only an 18 footer, and under the recomended weight for our truck. Is this normal? It ounds like the motor is going to explode. Towing a camper is all new to me.Should I have my truck checked out? It has an auto-tranny. Any input or info will be greatly appreciated.

    Don't be afraid to shift to a lower gear, the auto trans is not smart enough to do this. You will have to learn to do this. The other gears are there for you to use them when needed.
