 Cummins option recommendations

Get all the options you can afford, and want. I like my power windows and heated mirrors.
I do suggest you do like I did, and buy used. I got a great 99 SLT Laramie in 2001, and it is the best truck I ever owned, even being a former Ford fanatic, swearing I'd never own a Dodge. Never say never, huh? I boght it for the Cummins, and wouldn't have anything else.
It now has an extra turbo, a race tranny, and runs mid 14's in the 1/4, while still being able to tow a house. It will tow my flatbed and tractor to the track and run 12's before it's over (where's that big grin smiley?).
IF you want a stock truck, the older Ford's with the 7.3 Powerstroke engine are pretty good and have proven reliability. The new 6.0 PS is too new, and while some have had no problem, many have had lots of problems. I'd stay away from that engine for a couple of years.
