Will a 10 mile commute kill a diesel?
Looking at a 2014 Ram 2500 diesel but will my 10 mile round trip daily commute damage the engine? Should I just get the Hemi?

I cannot understand why anyone would recommend paying an extra $9,000 or more to get a 3/4 ton diesel pickup to pull a trailer like the one you have. Dumb does not even begin to describe it. Might as well get a Hummer to go grocery shopping.
I didn't. Bought used and though I no longer pull a fifth wheel with mine, it handles my TT just fine. More importantly.........it's paid for!
PS: Mine is an '05 Ram 3500 diesel. With its about 7000 lb. curb weight, it gets better fuel mileage (city or highway) than the Toyota Tundra it replaced.
