You're comparing to a 50k mi pickup for reliability? That should just be an expectation.
50 k on any truck is expected to be maint only and any of the diesels offered will be no different.
There is absolutely no issue with using a diesel pickup especially a new one as a DD, short trips, etc.
Read my thread on here about diesel pickups in the Arctic if you want a guage as to how much abuse it takes to make them an issue.
Go buy your favorite truck and drive it. Only diff is what you put in at the gas station and the smile on your face from being able to drive a real pickup! Lol
Some of the diesel emission systems has caused issues with the diesel's being runned as a daily driver.
Some people (not saying names) on this forum always recommend running their diesel trucks with the exhaust brake on to mitigate the soot build up problems.
