^ you both tow with 4.10s so you know how well they do. No need to argue over it.
Rvshrinker, yes if you're preparing for ANY possible combo of truck and rv then I'd go with deeper gears....just because you can and it will provide you more towing power (let's don't start the gearing theory wars, ok gents).
Since you're looking at duallys, many on the lots have deeper gearing than the standard 3.42s.
Aisin is a nice option too, but the 68rfe is holding up well or it wouldn't be around now for 10 years running.
If I was to order a new ram right now, even though I could afford it, I wouldn't spring the extra $$ for the Aisin unless I was using the truck commercially, towing really heavy most all the time.
