Well I have at present a 2012 Ram 68re DRW Max Tow 4:10. Previous truck was a 2003 Ram47re SRW 3:73. I still pull the same trailer and I use the truck as a daily driver. I live in Fla. which is pretty flat. But I tow everywhere, flats hills, mountains etc. I get about the same MPG towing with the two vehs. The 4:10 is awesome when climbing and the low end torque well that ain't bad. My point is and this is my two cents the 4:10 with either auto tranny is the way to go. My next Ram will also have a 4:10 it is such a nice gear with the auto trans. My two cents worth, but go out and drive the trucks geared differently and see for yourself.
