Thanks for all the input guys, you're all making good points. Unfortunately you're not all making the same point.... :B
As to some of the comments...
Yes I'll definitely be getting 4wd. Quite honestly you can't even find any 2wd trucks on the lots around here aside from a few regular cab long bed contractor rigs. Same goes for SUVs, actually - they don't even try to sell 2wd models.
I don't foresee a need to go with a long bed or one ton. I like bumper pull trailers because it leaves your bed free for hauling whatever toys are along for the trip, and I don't see ever wanting a trailer large enough that it would require a fifth wheel or one ton - that would limit me too much on getting into places where I like to camp.
I'm glad to hear most of you have positive comments about the newer Rams. I've never owned one so I'm a little leery of them, but they seem great. I guess with the 6.4 vs CTD it just comes down to two different but good engines with pretty well defined pros and cons.
