I agree with ScottZ, that I need to relax and enjoy the ride more, just nervous how slow would it go with the heavier rig behind me? Also hoping i don't have to go over another 5 mile long 10% grade again like the Teton pass! :-)

You will have to get your own bed.
+1 on enjoying the ride/view.

For me if we go with the heavier 5er we are definitely going with the HDT. While it is nice to have ample power to maneuver the mountain passes in the west my main object is a heavier truck to offset the weight of the trailer. As a bonus the heavier truck just happens to come with twice as much engine.
