A 2" squat is normal. I would leave well enough alone.

I think you mean tail-high when unloaded. That has been the standard pickup/van stance for years, so that when loaded, they squat down to level, or thereabouts.
Exactly, and this is both good and correct.
Don't think about raising the rear, instead lower the front, which will improve handling and reduce drag, which will improve MPG.
