OE Shock Replacements

Looking at replacing the shocks in my truck with basic stuff.

Regular monroe gas magnums, which RA calls "heavy duty", ~$30 a piece

http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=515128

Or monroe reflex light truck, which RA calls "increased handling/perf", ~$35 a piece
http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...255&cc=1431220
http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...240&cc=1431220

Between the two, is the more expensive one worth it? I can't seem to find a glaring difference between the two.

That is what I was feeling as well, just wanted some other opinions before ordering.
