looking to buy a newer diesel truck

Ok so Im looking to buy a Diesel powered Chevy Silverado or a GMC Sierra 2500 pick up. Im looking at two in particular a 2005 GMC crew cab pick up with 93k miles and a 2006 Chevy crew cab with 34k miles. The Chevy is about $4k more than the GMC.

I want to hear from you guys that have experience with the 6.6 Duramax. how reliable are they? What are the major issues with them? Both dealers say the trucks were well maintained. I have only test driven the 2005 and it runs and drives great. I looked it over and didn't see any problems with the truck. The 2006 I still have to drive.
The 2005 is more in my price range even though the 2006 is only 4k more. Should I be worried that the 2005 has 93k miles or should I just go the the 2006 with less miles.

I dont want anything newer than a 2006 becuase of price and other reasons.
