GMC 2500HD Duramax as a daily driver?

The Aisin transmission in the Ram 3500 with the high output Cummins is as good or better than the Allison transmission. Have seen these transmissions make 1 million miles in medium duty trucks with proper maintenance.
 
I daily a 2016, she's got almost 180k on her now and the only issues were a def tank heater that's now a non-issue.

The negative....well they don't fit into most parking places and some parking decks. Fuel economy is great for what it is even compared to half tons. The 10 speed trans in the new one along with the new L5P engine would be a great combo. I'm also looking at a new 2024 buy the $$ is hard to swallow.
