My opinion based on my experience:
1) 2015 HDs are awesome. I have had a 05, 08, 12 and now a 15 (first dmax). The 15 interior/exterior and cab road noise level and fit/finish is superior by far.
2) How many miles do you plan on towing? Are you towing lots of hills often? Excessive amounts of either means diesel in my opinion.
3) The short commute daily not a big deal with Dmax, just means you would need to run it open Highway for about 40 miles every 400 miles or so to get a complete regen cycled.
4) What axle is in the gasser? You will definitely want or need a 4:10. 3:73 OK but 4:10 will help considerably when towing 10k lbs on hills.
5) How many years do you plan on keeping ythe truck?
All are good questions to cconsider before making the decision.
