The OP indicated he was buying a truck...if he's buying anyway 1/2 vs 3/4, cost difference is negligible.
I will say that the 6.0's that I had which were 2011 and a 2015 got 14- 15 mpg empty. My wife's 1500 with a 5.3 gets around 20 mpg empty (it has never towed more than jet ski). So the daily driver side of the equation would favor the 1500. If I had to chose one, I would still go with a HD. However the mpg difference isn't nonexistent.
