I have an '11 crew cab with the 6.2 and it's a big improvement over the 6.0 vortexMax that I had. Power is noticeably improved, the variable displacement programming is better and the compression braking in trailer mode is interesting as well.

Towing a 20' enclosed with a first gen I averaged 8 mpg... Yep... 8. Doing tha same highway stretch without the trailer I got 18. Towing at 70 is hard on the mileage; towing at 60 isn't nearly as bad.
