automatic transmission seems to be stuck in 3rd gear

What is your question?

pulled trailer home and truck seemed sluggish at take off. Noticed rpm was high for pulling an empty trailer. got home and checked fluid and it was good. unhooked trailer to check truck out and noticed it was still sluggish and it wasn't shifting gears. running about 60 the truck now turns 2800 rpm, used to be 1900. shifted down to 2nd and nothing changed. shifted to 1st and still nothing changed. Any ideas? Is this something electrical or mechanical?
