I'm assuming the second pic is the new truck, and yes I can see the difference in the rear ride heights.
I know according to some on here, only Ford's squat under a load, but I agree with you that if that's your old trailer, and the new one is heavier, I'd be investing in a set of bags.
Just the versatility of being able to set the right height based on how you load your gear in the trailer would be worth it in my opinion.
Coming from the bumper pull toyhauler side of things, my tonque weights can vary greatly depending on how or if I load the toys/tanks/gear. The same trailer can have anywhere from 1200-2200lbs of tongue weight. Add to that, sometimes the truck bed is empty, other times it has 3000lbs in it plus the trailer tongue weight.
