Mine is comfortable, what I really liked and was surprised about was once I got on the highway, and his 70-80, it's a quiet ride. Cruising at about 1,000 RPM. My biggest crips is having to plug the sum bitch in when it's cold

Basically, power to fuel efficiency...gotta go diesel.

Once I got used to the diesel I have never looked back....I have done long distance RV'ing where I pull heavy loads for long periods of time usually going from the deep south to the far west. Naturally its usually hot very hot the diesel engines takes away any worry in that area. The only real reasons I have bought new trucks is the GTC of the 2500/250's kept going up with the newer models. I needed the max capacity in a 2500/250 I do not like the 3500/350 with the dual real tire axles. My 2500 truck has a 17,800 max GTC now.

One more thing I added to my diesel was a 60 gal diesel tank in the bed with a short tool combo aluminum box @ top of the bed level. It's gravity fed and I always had that extra 60 to go with the 36 gallon tank which also adds degree of less worry. I found it well worth the cost around $800 installed.

Speaking of beds, got mine sprayed with LineX today. Did I choose wisely or should I have gone with Rhino?

Rhino is just most well known, there are plenty of great brands out there. LineX should be fine.
