My TT is 8000 lbs fully loaded and the XD is more than up to the task. If you can't get a good deal on the XD over a 3/4ton then no it's not worth it. I paid 13.5K under MSRP for my diesel XD which made it still 6-7k less than a 3/4 gasser. Market area can make the difference on what discounts you can get so yours might be different than mine.
Just to add to this, I got almost the exact same discount off of my SL crew cab. My TT weighs in approx 7500lbs loaded and pull's with ease. My two long trips this summer where 1000 miles round trip each. The rest were a lot closer. I really like how much more stable this truck is compared to my previous half ton. The extra weight is an advantage. Towing I got 11.5 mpg on the last trip (500 miles back home). I have reached as high as 25.1 mpg unloaded highway, but more typical is 19-22 hwy. I am just approaching 9000 miles on the truck.
