Nobody can tell you for sure, install it and see if you have significant voltage drop.

Couldn't hurt none ...

BTW ... Welcome to SSA !!!

Where you live in Mississippi ??

With just 2 batteries on 2000 watts you will more than likely have some voltage drop. Seeing as how your truck is a 2500, it probably has a pretty large alternator, so I could be wrong. I'd do what Ohjay said and install it first. If your voltage is dipping when bass kicks in, another battery wouldn't hurt. Also be sure to do the big 3, it helps a lot.
