Towing in the mountains, get the diesel for sure. The extra pwr and the exhaust brake are worth it alone. I honestly think your selling yourself short just looking at the RAM, all three make great trucks and the other two don't make you pay for a better transmission, they come with it!
Some light reading,

Who is really best in class
If any of that meant anything to me, I'd still own a Chevy, (owned Chevy pick-ups from 1975 through mid year of 2010..last 4 were D/A's...loved them, great trucks and the D/A combo is great...but I went with Dodge dually in 2010 and now truck in my sig....so HP/TQ/how fast to the top of the mountain, how much GVWR/GCWR, etc...is all nice, but wanted to try something different..Have only owned a Dodge Ram truck for a little over 5 years and I like it....I'm in it for the long run hopefully thus the reason I went with the Cummins and Aisin tranny, both components being "medium duty"...guess we'll see...:)
