Not to start a diesel vs gas debate because I can't be swayed, just an explanation of the gas choice. I will say that Javi called me once and made a convincing argument for the diesel and almost had me convinced but I just can't get past the price tag.

Danny, are you trading in the 2014 6.4 on the new truck? Look at the difference in trade in between the 6.4 and a 6.7 diesel. Yep you do have the first time buy in of $10,000 or so, but the difference in trade in value you retain about 80% of it.
Likely not going to change your mind, but you aren’t just throwing $10k away. Then there is the towing experience, while a gas engine is getting to the top of its comfort zone at 12,000# to 14,000# a diesel is at low end of its comfort zone. I am sure Javi covered this with you.
