It looks OK, knowing the TBN would have been nice. It would have given you a better idea of how much life the oil had left.
I have the same truck. I use 5w30 or 10w30.
This model doesn't have MDS.
I am surprised you don't go with a heavier oil for such severe use such as plowing.

What brand of magnetic drain plug do you have? Strong magnet or weak one?
Dimple or GoldPlug? Or Dorman (ughhhh).

i switched to st syn 5w30 for the fill after this pp run. truck consumed 2qts of the pp 5w20 in 3k mi.
thinking of trying pp 5w30 next. hemi tick sounds louder with the st or mabye because its thicker oil, idk.
i would like to use the most quiet oil i can. most likely need something that doesnt get too thick when cold.
also i own the truck for less than a year and this was the first oci with plowing use. it didnt have a plow
on it when i bought it.
i dont remember the brand of magnetic drain plug i used but it wasnt a bargain brand.
its pretty strong, i think its a neodymium. it definitely had some fuzz on it, nothing crazy tho.
