What does all this MEAN? TV help.
So, we bought a truck last year on a whim (Ram 1500), and then bought a rig. Didn't plan the 2 purchases out very well. Technically the 5er is within the specs of the truck....but we towed over I-70...

RAMs - So, this will really cement my "girly" status, but some of the things I don't care for in my RAM are cosmetic issues at best.
Now, the question. The reason I am thinking I need to steer clear of the diesel is because the radius of my daily life. I average 8,000 miles a year, easily 2,000 of that is towing/camping, leaving 6,000 of in town driving on little 2-3 mile jaunts. How hard is it on the diesel to be doing these shorts runs - and how long does it have to "warm up" to not damage the engine?

You don't have to justify to ANYONE why you do or don't like the aesthetics of any vehicle.
I have not personally dealt with short drives with a diesel but from everything I have read on the net, the short answer is they hate it.
Then again gas engines aren't that thrilled either, but of the two, go with the gas.
