Default Trutrac vs. LSD, again

Iv searched every thread and read through all of them. Iv read threads where guys of blown trutracs and eaton LSD. Part of me wants to go with the LSD, since the axles are locked together, till you turn. This will also be in a 14 bolt SF. Also, I like that you can rebuild the LSD, but can't rebuild the trutrac. For a truck that will see NO off road use, just some street fun everyone and than, what do you guys think?

I have a trutrac in a 14 bolt and it has acted funny a few times.

I'm a fan of the Eaton LSD these days. Have two ten bolts running LSD's and they put down two stripes everytime.
