I have an "02" F=350 Super Duty 1-ton dual wheel dump. It has the 7.3 ltr. diesel 4 wheel drive auto trans W/manual transfer case (lever on the floor) and manual hubs. (you gotta get out and lock em by hand). With a solid front axle. Also has a 9ft minute mount plow.
I live in New England. and I wouldn't own anything but manual hubs and transfer case. I don't mind getting out to lock the hubs, at least I know that It's in four wheel drive.
I haven't had a lick of trouble with this truck
It rides like a truck, but has a compliant suspension.
As far as I'm concerned If you want a real truck that's still made today, get a Ford or Dodge.
I'm not knockin Chevys cause I plow at a hospital here in Ma. with an "05" Chevy 3/4 ton pickup with the big block and this truck takes a beatin, the ride is very car like and you don't have to jump up to get in it, but it has a manual transfer case w/ the auto front ead although we haven't had any problems yet there's always that worry, is the frtont end going to lock in. We also have a 98 Chevy plow truck and we have trouble with the front not locking in when the weather is very cold.
