Opinions on my dilema - newer trucks SRW vs DRW

I likely know the answer here... Current truck has 350,000kms. Engine is pretty good but it has 200,000kms on the 2nd trans, oil pan leak, small electrical gremlins, rusting etc. Its getting tire...

My Bigfoot pushed me to a DRW. I had a 2016 Ram 3500, LB, Cc, Cummins. I scaled while on a winter trip very heavily loaded. I was right at tire limit, RAWR, and well over payload. Bigfoot weighed 4200 to 4400# if I remember correctly. Even with a BigWig it was squirmy. Came home and ordered a 2018 DRW. HAPPY HAPPY.
