I am at 115k on the truck and the current brakes were replaced around 45k and are starting to pulse on the highway.

I plan to replace all 4 rotors and pads and wanted to get opinions on the best products to purchase. I tow a 3500lb boat in the summer and a utility trailer periodically throughout the year. Main usage is daily driver highway as my work vehicle.

I notice Rock Auto sells the powerstop product for a good price, but I have never used these product

Any suggestions?

I had Power Stop rotors on my 01 Denali. Worked just fine at about 1/2 the cost of OEM. The real magic was the Hawk LTS pads. The brakes we barely adequate before. The Hawks would be able to do multiple hard stops with no fade.

I have Hawk LTS and Centric rotors on the rear of my 07 EB EL and I agree. For non-towing or HD use they are a marked improvement and have firmed up the brake pedal.
