As for better or worse there is no difference in ride quality.
but like you say the weight savings on inboard bearing trucks is huge, specially the unsprung weight.
The truck frame on inboard bearing truck is much narrower.
The axle is about two feet shorter ( couple of hundred pounds)
And the stuff like brake rigging, third rail gear etc has more room to be worked on.
