Question Brake replacement advice please

I recently purchased a 2005 4x4 with 46k miles. I believe it has warped rotors so am going to do a complete brake job on it. I am wondering if I should spend the money on slotted rotors or if I should just buy stock replacements. This truck is my daily driver, rarely tow.

Drilled/slotted rotors are not necessarily more than oem replacements depending on brand, quality and sale pricing.
Check out rockauto.com for some pricing.
eBay has some cheap drilled slotted rotors, but I would rather buy a reputable brand with some warranty.
