I am new to my truck, and to this forum... I noticed it shifts at higher RPM's by default... so yeah quicker... But then, if you really trounce on it... it'll still stand up!
so would it be better acceleration from a dead stop or moving? Also i remember one of my older cars said turn overdrive off if you need more power to pass someone. Is tow/haul the same thing as turning overdrive off?

O/D off doesn't allow the OD 4th gear...tow/haul does.
Your part throttle acceleration will be a little better in tow/haul because of the raised shift points...which results in higher rpms under the same amount of throttle. If you go WOT there won't be a difference...full throttle has it's own shift tables which aren't effected by tow/haul.
