For towing something about HALF the rated tow capacity, say 4000 pounds, with a large frontal area causing a lot of drag, I will always take the torque of a turbo diesel for towing over a gas motor.
As for a 5th wheel and towing with an eco diesel... have at it, I wouldn't even bother. Nor would I go much over 25 feet with an ultra light travel trailer. YMMV, with the mountains and gusts of winds in canyons out west here, that is where I draw my personal limits.
