What was the hurt ($$$) on that beauty? I'm thinking of the same type. Is that the Laramie or the Limited? Very nice looking hauler!

Congrats on the new truck, and condolences on the payments
I just upgraded my new 2500, love the truck, hate making payments as the old one was paid off! I do enjoy the power and the capacity it provides - big difference in towing in a 10-12 year old truck.

I have a 2013 dually with the 4.10 gearing. In town I average 13-15. Unloaded highway mileage is 17-18 if kept under 68. Loaded with our 18,000 pound trailer I usually average 9-10 on flat land 8-9 on moderate hills and flat land. In the mountains anywheres from 0-7. All depends on how fast I'm trying to get to the top.
You can see my numbers here.

I like the gears for the ability to get up and go loaded.

I would not say no bells and whistles! I think I see a spray in bed liner, the fifth wheel prep and will bet a brake control! All extras 
Awesome Truck! Great price IMHO!
