I plan on keeping truck till my kids are off to college. They are both currently in diapers. The $11k for the Cummins and AISIN is not a concern. Assuming this combo will provide more reliability over the long haul. I'm just checking with you guys and gals here to be sure my driving habits won't prematurely wear on the diesel. I've never owned a diesel so my insights are limited and my opinion infirm. Thanks for any thoughts.

Your anticipated driving habits will not be an issue one bit. Read my thread in here about a fleet of new Rams I tortured in the Arctic with respect to emissions.
If you plan on keeping the truck forever, you're looking at the best combo IMO. And as a bonus you'll pull every trip with the camper like it wasn't even behind you!
I wouldn't turn down a new Dmax either but the Mega cab is worth it. Only problem is you can't reach the kids to smack them when they are misbehaving because the back seat is too far away! (You'll understand in a few years when they start fighting in the back seat! Lol)
