Default looking into a diesel ?

Just wanted to say hay

I'm a new guy interested in some advise on a diesel choice, I have come to realize now that me & my wife started a insulation business I need a larger truck,and I drive around 50kto60k miles a year,mild snow plowing in winter ,summer tow open trailer,3500lbs car
I'm realistically looking at about July / Aug. before I'm ready.
I still a little concerned My son had a 02 chevy crew w/a duramax ,let put it this the kid went through hell with that truck, he's a helicopter mechanic in the navy and he's the one telling me to get diesel ?
maybe 07 gmc ext cad ?????

Every brand has it's share of issues. The way I see it..

get the one you feel most comfortable driving! thats the big one.. you have to be in it, not us!

look through the forums and look at what others have reported as problems and what it took to repair them, maybe pick a truck based on potential problems?
