Question 1/2 ton vs. 3/4 ton

My question is this: what are the advantages and disadvantages in the following areas:
gas mileage-my half ton has a 3.08 rear end, whats the lowest you can get in a 3/4?
reliability-are the 3/4s stronger?
parts cost and availability-I think I know this one.....
handling-what if you put low profile tires (like 60 series) on those 16" 8 lug wheels?
and anything else you can think of..... thanks!
