So a 1992-1996 Ford F350 (not 250)
Or a 1999-2003 Ford Super Duty F250/F350
Or a 1993-up Dodge 2500 or 3500
Or a 1987-1991 GM K2500 or K3500 (really old now!)
Don't buy a diesel unless you have a very specific non-plowing need for one in the Summer

1993 and DOWN would be the proper range for a leaf sprung Dodge truck. 1994 and up will have a 5 link coil sprung front.
Agreed that the leafs are nice to have for plowing but there are tons of dedicated small job plowing XJ's around. You're not going to plow an interstate but it will work out for a small application.
