It's already too late for my first suggestion... stay off the forums... LOL. But really, since you're here, don't get freaked out by horror stories. You are the exception as opposed to the rule, joining just because you have a new SD. MANY join only when they have a problem so someone new here will look at all the current threads and think, wow, there are a lot of problems with these rigs. Not true. Bad news travels fast and lasts forever on the net.
Other than that, just drive it and enjoy. Congratulations on the new truck and post often. We have a great group here and are glad to have you...

Welcome to the world of the 6.7 PSD!!!!
Just enjoy your new ride! Like you, I came from an '11 6.2L gasser. But, I thought that I needed/wanted a dually, and good luck finding one of those on a lot, let alone with the gas engine. So, with that, I made the switch to diesel and so far, am not regretting it!!! But you might need to hook up something and pull once in a while, just to let the beast get a little exercise!!!!! 
It loves to pull!!!
