Don't know about the 6.0 GM vs the 6.6L Dmax but my 345hp/365ftlbs '05 Hemi powered 2500HD Ram towed our previous 10,400 lb 5th wheel up the grades faster than our 250hp/460 ftlbs '03 2500HD Ram. With horsepower you can make torque through gear reduction. That extra 100 hp made a pretty big difference at highway speeds.
Here we go again Hannibal, comparing apples to oranges. I have told you before I believe, I will be more than happy to meet you somewhere with my stock '05 cummins and we can do some test runs. Your 345 hp/365 lbft against my 325 hp/610 lbft. I'll bring my 18,000# trailer and you can pick the 500 mile route.
I see you now have a 2010 5.4 Ford? 320 hp? even better comparison. You should have the 6 speed trans, better for you. I'm still up for the test, are you?
