Default Expectations?

So Gentlemen.. I am converting to the dark side soon. I JUST sold my 2004 6.0L and have found a 2005 SLT 3500 6speed with 117Kmiles for 17K cash. Heard this was a great deal and its an extremely clean truck. BEINGS I WAS a ford man, I now have to learn about Dodge. What kind of mpg's, flaws/defects and such can I look for first? Any thoughts or opinions will be greatly appreciated
