Default LLY Allision as a daily driver?

So how would this setup be as a daily driver? EXSB 2wd LLY 5speed. The only thing that worries me about this truck would be its comfort as an in town daily driver. I have driven my dads Cummins ECLB 4wd 6-speed and it sucks as a daily driver. Parking it sucks. Driving in traffic sucks. Also, does the LLY 5 truck feel loose? When my TA had the 4000 stall in it I really did not like the around town feel.

Thanks

loose? shouldnt. it will have some turbo lag. IMHO, they make AWESOME daily drivers. great power, great milage, low noise levels, and GREAT seats (esp the leather captain chairs). also a great new turning radius. go out and test drive one. you will love it, esp that tranny brake in the allison. the GM diesel is the most city friendly of all the diesels. a world of difference between the new trucks and the rattletrap cummins.
