After an almost 10 year run, I'm finally replacing my 975d. What do I need to know going into it? What should I expect, and how do I get the most out of it?

You better get it done with a Trackman or else you're just guessing. You need a landing angle between 38-40* to maximize distance and try to keep the shot at a maximum height of 30 yards high. Anything else and it will be ballooning. (These numbers might change depending upon your clubhead speed and ball speed). There are a lot of variables in play.
Are you getting fitted on Trackman?
I'd make sure the balls you are hitting are consistent with each other(condition/brand/type). I got on a launch monitor at a golf galaxy and tried a bunch of new drivers. After a while I asked to hit some prov's instead of the srixon range balls. The difference in launch and spin was dramatic.
So, my advice would be to limit at least one variable (the ball) - you want to measure the driver's performance as best you can.
Did the range balls spin more or less? This is the launch variable that I'll be watching most closely, along with ballspeed.
It's on Trackman. I wouldn't do it any other way. I'm trying to get as much out of this as I can; I want my distance output to at least be close to what it should be. TM or Flightscope measurements are the only way for me to be sure I'm on the right track...
The landing angle and max height issues are huge and non existent on regular launch monitors. Your club head speed will alter a lot of variables. Also, don't be afraid of shafts with greater than 3.0* torque. I hope my post helped and good luck.
The 910 D3 is a very great driver and try it out.

Going to Miles of Golf?
Hit it hard. And try out the i20.
Could you be a bit more explanatory why he should not fear shaft torque greater than 3.0º, because that is quite a specific recommendation you make?
As for the Titleist 910 D3 driver... why do you conclude that it's a "great" driver?
I went to the Titleist website and for that driver I note they say it is a "deep-faced" driver for better trajectory control. This made me think.
The D3 has weight screws to pull the driver head CofG back and lower. If you do this, you will enhance the "vertical gear effect" of the deeper face and will create a range of backspins from top to bottom of the driver face. Is this why you think it's a "great" driver.. it has a wide variation of anti-backspin (aka topspin)?
