Nothing like moving into a new unit! Congrats! We never did the part time RVing, we went right into full timing with a 38' FW and then traded for a new 39'. Sounds like we have about the same truck.
You will really like the level-up system, that alone is almost worth trading up for IMHO.
I don't know where you generally fuel up at, for us we always use truck stops. A 39' FW is a lot of trailer to be trying to pull into a gas station with. In addition, when we pull into Pilot, Flying J, or Loves we always use the commercial truck lanes and never use the RV lanes.
About the only other thing you will probably notice is there are CG's that will be tight for you to get in, and they all won't be State CG's or National Parks either. We have found some older converted KOA private CG's that have been a real challenge to back into.
