Check your weights! Not sure what you currently have for a trailer/5vr right now, or what you are thinking about for the future. But usually a diesel has significantly less payload than the gas equivalent. I learned this the hard way with my F250. In the Ford models an F250 has almost 700lbs less payload in diesel than in gas. IMO, if you are getting a diesel you should spring for the 350-3500.
Dan has a good point here, you should check into the payload difference. If it is less than your truck, see if the dealer will put the 3500 overload spring pack in the deal and check that this diesel has the snow plow prep pkg. with the 6K torsion bars.
Wow that is a pretty truck!
