V10 Gasser performance at GVWR

I am considering replacing my 2001 V10 Crew Cab SWR SB with a 2010 Crew Cab dually V10 which will be used for hauling my 14K lbs RV. I have 4:30 gears in my current truck and performance is marginal in the east coast mountains. I travel alot but have not gone west yet. I want more than just marginal hill climbing power and while I don't want to go diesel I'm thinking I need to.

Is there anyone out there with a new V10 experienced in towing at or near the trucks maximum ratings and with mountain experience that could provide some thoughts.

Also only the 3.73 or 4:10 ratio is available in the dually according to my local dealer. The SRW can be ordered with the 4:30 but not the DRW. What gives????? I want max towing capacity!

Any thoughts to help me make up my mind before it;s too late ot order a 2010 would be greatly appreciated.
