well I want to go faster than you.
So you are the dumbass driving his 3/4 ton like a race car weaving in and out if traffic. Not sure why there are so many of you around there are much better (and safer) vehicles for driving fast.
24v 5.9l Cummins is at around the powe and torque of those new small diesels and had no problem with big loads. But once you get to those bigger loads over 10k your motor and gearing is just a small part of the equation. I would worry more about the 1/2 ton truck getting pushed the suspension getting overloaded and not stopping like I would want it to. Small diesel is perfect for your boat or 25ft camper. Pulling a double car hauler stop looking at half ton pickups.
