Just be aware that your requirements are very popular right now. My truck is worth more now than when I bought it 4 years and 100k miles ago. Asking price on a 06 with less than 100k is in the high 20's right now. You can find some in the sub 20 range but they are at 250k driven hard miles.
I will be looking in the low to mid 30's range as long as I get what I need on my trade.
One more question that will help with my decision. This will be a daily driver so MPG is important. What can I expect form the 5.9 and 6.7?
I will be pulling a Raptor 3018 TT around 12k. What kind of MPG can I expect towing?
Tsetsaf, is pretty spot on, My truck has not lost any value and may have gained some even at 270,000 miles. Towing 12,000# you will be fine I have a small chip in my 01 giving me about 270 hp and 570# of torque. The 3rd gen got to 345 hp and 610#. I pull 11,000# in the coast range of Western Oregon and never hold up traffic.
