Bo, If you want to follow ratings, you should be looking at a 3500 srw as a minimum.
The wt of the diesel, plus the added wt of the Denali package, will take away payload, that a 2500 does not have to spare.
The Duramax will pull it no problem, but you will be over GVWR, and could go over RAWR with what you described.
You could just ignore all ratings (some do), and add airbags, higher rated tires, and just buy the 2500.
A 3500 would be my advice for you.
