I like your wheels, I have a few suggestions. I love my 7.3, its a solid truck 290,000m. I would not recommend the DP, It runs and tows great with it but the interface to the truck has a finicky connection that was a real PITA to get right.
I have been doing 10,000m oil changes with synthetic oil and a fine oil bypass filter kit from NUC ($195), testing at 5k and 7500. I could go farther but that is far enough for me to make it worthwhile. My truck burns about 3-4 quarts in 10k. You can test it at wheeler cat in slc for $12.83 24 hour results. with 80-100$ oil changes its quickly been worthwhile for me.
If you can spare some room in the front of your bed (16") and about 1700$ get a cng kit on it. I am really enjoying it running about 50%cng 50% Diesel only had it for 3000 miles but the advantages are clear to me. Its available all along I-15 and in heber, myton, and vernal where I work. I have got 21mpg on diesel towing my jeep 3 different hand calculated occasions with it. Last towing tank with diesel at 3.79 and cng at 1.52 came out to 26.04cents/mile. regular driving I've been getting between 26 and 31 mpg on diesel. saving about 15% on fuel costs and its super torquey, I really like it. My egt's havent been affected but I do have a 4" exhaust & an intake, no cat as well. Range on diesel is over 1000miles and cng is 200/300 miles(towing/not towing). This dude breaks it down pretty good - http://cng-times.com/2012/02/13/f250-powerstroke-natural-gas-conversion-project-pt-6/ ews sells everything you need as well as a handful of others around if you search cng on ksl its really simple. With more power and more efficient it has made me happy. I had NDI systems install mine for a few hundred bucks and he included a diamond plate cover, but it would be easy to do if you had a weekend free.
Good Luck
