Default 2500hd Diesel 2015 vs 2018 perforamce difference

Hello all,
I recently traded in my 2015 2500 HD LT for a 2018 high country 2500 both diesel.
I believe the HP and torque went up some with the 2018, however it seems slower than the 2015 I had, at least off the line or even accelerating from say 50 to 70MPH.
Is it in my head or is this possible?

I've read that there is learning period where the transmission is figuring out how you normally drive it. Not sure if that may be what make's it seem slower.

I just traded in 2015 F-250 Powerstroke for a 2018 3500HD DRW (both with 4WD) and my 3500HD doesn't quite have the pep that my F-250 did. I figured that was due to the weight difference between the trucks (although I haven't actually looked at the weight differences). I may not be comparing apples to apples, but figured I would throw in my $0.02.
