Well, it will do slightly better than a 6.0 3.73 6speed truck.
But will not be an earth shattering improvement.

Yeah, from the field to the farm, a few miles at most. You can put up with it being slow and anemic. You might even think it's fast and powerful.
I fell into that with my enclosed trailer and 2003 Silverado 1500 4.8L. Towed it great around town. Acceptable for 50-mile trips. After the first 200+ mile trip, I knew I didn't want to do that forever.
Putting 10-ply tires on half ton trucks since aught-four.
