So a week after getting my truck I did a 200 mi round trip towing my 7k+ camper loaded for dry camping and 7 long guns, 6 revolvers and a ton of ammo for a shooting match, The rifles were in the back seat and the bed contained a grill, 2 generators, 5 gal of gas, and a gun cart so it was moderately loaded. Towing was smooth and steady. I set the cruise for 62mph. Mileage was 13.9 which is coincidentally exactly what I used to get with my '15 before replacing he SRA's. Route was moderately hilly.

I just swapped the WD hitch from my '15 and it seemed to work without adjustment.

Could you tell that it pulled better than the 15?
If you're asking me if I felt the added torque then no, this was a pretty routine trip. My '15 was a 3.55 and this is a 3.92 and it generally feels more peppy than the '15.
