Tom,
Them sons are shrimps! My twin sons are 5'16" not very tall, add in the 2 daughters, probably in the same boat you are/were! Ex hated it when a gallon of milk would go away bewteen breakfast and lunch! I'm going "and?!?!?!?!" qt a person a day, is 1.5 gals between the 6 of us daily. 1 gal will not last long! other issues shall we say.
I have a feeling we both know the same general drill.
Glad you have a bigger garage than I have, I would luv a 30x30 somewhere, then I could park some trucks in them to work on or my bobcat/track hoe etc too.
Generally speaking, you will be fine with a V10, it will go slower than a diesel. Especially on DOnner or equal. You will/would really notice the difference above 6-7K feet elevation. Below, properly setup, not too many differences. Good luck on the search.
