Default help asap nee advice on buying first diesel truck

hi i am lookinf for advice i am looking for my very first diesel truck ford or dodge with a manual trans but havent found one yet. i have found a 2008 f250 king ranck 4x4 it's in mint condition its got 112k miles asking $26.9k carfax says thats 2.6k too much... but i have herd as much bad as i have good from these 6.4L diesels. the carfax on this truck is one owner and shows the following service history: 17,000 miles front driveshaft removed and installed frond crankshaft oil seal replaced, 30,000 miles radiator replaced engine powertrain controller module reprogrammed, 59,000 miles replaced battery charging system checked, 77,000 miles fuel pump replaced ecm replaced, body electrical wireing repaired, 95,000 miles egr valve replaced, 100,000 miles turbocharger repaired/replaced, 102,000 miles battery replaced, and lots of regular mantenance and service done. all work done by ford dealer. is this a truck with all the kinks worked out or is this a lemon truck?? i looked another identical truck (color&king ranch package,105,00 miles) to the tee except 2wd and there is only one service record for regular inspection mantanence. so that makes me woder if the one i want is a lemon or the 2wd one i looked up tho compare records with was a neglected truck because wouldnt some one with a 60,000 dollar truck take it in for regular inspections?? only have tonigh and tommorow to decide help please. what model cummins to look at 5.9 or 6.7 pros and cons ? needs to be used so advice on 06-09 models cuz their in my price range, 4 door, 4x4 manual trans right? dont dodge have weak trannys i know my dakota tranny went out at 47k miles i know thats way off from a diesel truck. what about duramax?
