Your mileage difference between the 4.10 and the 4.30 pulling a trailer would be insignificant and maybe even lower with the 4.10 as it would have less torque towing power, so you'd have to make it up with a heavier foot. I do like the 4.10 for all around use as I only tow a few times a year, but towing a 32' trailer, the 4.30 seems like the perfect ratio for you with the V-10. I will say that the newer V-10's have much more power and coupled with the newer Torque Shift transmission, there is a world of difference in performance and towing vs the pre-2005 V-10's.
