1st Gen Crew Cab Engine

Thanks for all the input so far guys. I will be using the truck to tow (want to get a camper once I graduate school), as a up in the mountain rig and hauling around the family.

Part of the reason the 360/383/440 option are appealing is because I've worked on them before and I wouldn't have any problems fixing any issues. I've never owned a diesel before so that would present a whole new learning curve in and of itself.
