You may be surprised by the power increase in the current 5.3L vs your 2009. They also offer engine grade braking. It does help in the mountains.
The stability of a 3/4 ton is an amazing difference when towing. The ride is a bit harsh when running empty. Diesel is not necessary. I have had both and returned to gas. Modern trucks are so much quieter you just don't hear the engine "scream" like you used to.
