Quick response please - 1990 F250 Hauling Capacity

I just purchased an 1990 F250 7.3 IDI with 214k. New tranny was installed at 180k. Changed oil, filter, and coolant. Checked transmission fluid and it looks as clean as it came out of the bottle.

Have driven this vehicle for about 200 miles now and it seems to run great. No significant smoke, just a little black smoke if I punch it.

Tomorrow I need to haul an 1800 to 2000lb item for a 3 1/2 hour ride on a rural highway. No steep inclines.

I wasn't planning on using a trailer and will drive it easy (55 mph) once loaded

Any concerns?

Thanks
