Towing with a Tundra

I just got a Toyota Tundra 5.7 which is a move up from my Ford F-150 4.6, both have about the same length yet the Tundra's hitch is about 3/4 of an inch higher. So my questions for everyone that might know, how is it towing with the Tundra and do you think I would need to adjust my Equalizer hitch for the small difference in the new hight? I know I will have more power on the hills and mountains but just looking for anyone's experience with the change?

    man I would take that 10mpg in a heart beat. Way more than my Ford 6.2 gives me, but I am towing a smidge more.

    With gas, 8 mpg is not bad, 9 mpg is great, but most times 10 mpg is not going to happen, without lowering speed and adding a tailwind.
