OP, I think that both of the trucks you shared are way overpriced. Especially the Mega Cab with the Stacks. The Blue truck could be a good deal if you could get it for closer to 15k. Check out Dennis Dillon Dodge in Idaho for prices on new trucks. I saw a SRW Ram 3500 Tradesman for $39k on there awhile back. Brand New!

After owning two Dodge Diesel trucks , one,
02 2500 4x4 Quad Cab 5.9L 24V AT and one 08 Dodge 3500 4x4 Mega Cab with the 6.7L 6 speed Ainsin Auto Trans.
The 02 was troublesome, well know Injection pump issues $2300 and well known weak 4 speed auto overdrive tranny, $4500 billet rebuild. Once that was all done it was a great tow vehicle.
My 08 Mega Cab SRW with the 6.7L , exhaust brake and 6 speed AT was by far my best Tow vehicle ! Very reliable, awesome power , stability and smoothness.
I also owned a 01 Ford 7.3L Diesel which was a very good tow vehicel and definatey an upgrade from my 1998 GMC 2500 7.4L Suburban

I have a 2006 Dodge HD2500 SLT 4x4 Cummins 24V with the very hard to find 6 speed manual transmission with 3:54 gear ratio.I bought the truck used from the original owner at 33K miles and it presently has 233K miles.
I pull an aluminum sided 31 foot 5th wheel so it's abit lighter than the fiberglass units.I am well within all my weight ratings.
Love my old truck and at my age it will probably be the last I own.
Shoot,it's just getting broke in.
I had a 1996 I bought new and sold with 740K miles on it.Loved it as well.

New trucks have high ratings, however they are quite a bit heavier also.
OP, a year ago we sold our 2001.5 RAM 2500 4x4 Std cab. It had the camper option along with the optional LT25/75R16E tires. 2001.5 is the best year for the 24V RAM. 4 wheel disc brakes(introduced in .5 release), Center Axle Disconnect (discontinued on 2002's) on the front axle. It was a very capable truck. We towed a 29' 5th wheel and it did very well. Was over GVWR but under the rear GAWR.
