I don't mean to derail on that. A lot of the Toyota bashing is justified, but they make good off-road equipment. I feel like I need to jump in and defend them when I shouldn't- but I've seen them in some crazy places, and some people I know who I trust really like Toyota's off road products.

As a side note-I want to see the upcoming Power Wagon vs the Raptor match up. Power Wagon looks like more of a crawler while the Raptor is a pre-runner. Some really amazing 4wd feature sets.

That is awesome! If you can get it in a diesel that just might be my next work truck.

They said yes on diesel, then they said no then they hinted 2011. In 2010 it's just a 1500 chassis (so hemi) but they've talked about a 2500 for 2011 which would bring in the cummins.

LOL- Yay for threadjacking.

Oh okay, that's right. No, my point was mainly about the locker until Mr. smith(you little devil) was pretty hard on the chevy. But, It's all in good fun. I just never bought a toyota because they are not heavy duty enough for what I do. Put a Locker in and is goes as good as the chevy.

a true test would have been at night with a few other smartasses yelling at you because you are only idling into it for fear you might rub the bumper!

sorry for another hijack but since we don't have the snow and we like to make shots around 1000 yards down here, this is what we use:
