OP should have no problems with mountains. Let the engine sing when it needs to. Some Ecoboost owners have commented about the lack of engine braking particularly downhill. Again, let it sing. With the available torque under 3000rpm many owners never need to exceed that going up. But you still want 5000rpm going down.
Dick_B, put the pedal down! 3rd gear 60mph 4500rpmm shouldn't be a problem for the truck, so get your mind over it. Wear ear plugs if you want. That 6.0L doesn't wake up until 3500rpm and sounds great to my ears pulling hard to 5700rpm.
