The 91 towing does make a difference. I did not feel much difference in normal driving when I went from the 87 to tow, but when I changed it back, the truck felt slower. As far as towing, it definitely makes a difference when pulling 5k lbs.
You will need to determine if the performance gain is worth the $.20 per gallon difference; with the trailer, it definitely is for me.
