It will be interesting to hear how it pulls compared to your '15 and your '11.
There wasn't a huge difference between the 11 and 16. The torque converter of the 11 seemed to hook up a little faster than the 16 but the exhaust brake on the 16 was far better than that of the 11. They were both excellent trucks. After one short pull with the 17 I notice quite an improvement. The transmission still wants to hang on to the upper gears longer than it should.

This Citation trailer pulls very nice for the most part but in this one particular spot it would throw the old truck around a bit. I didn't feel that at all with the new truck.
