[QUOTE="seanpholman, post: 15795, member: 808"] I was also the person who wrote the story about the Raptor vs. Power Wagon and on that 500-mile loop, with the vehicles back to back over the same terrain, there were things about the Power Wagon that we preferred over the Raptor, namely suspension harshness at low speeds and transmission calibration. People underestimate just how good of a truck the Power Wagon is. While both trucks serve a different audience and mission, their similar price points and the fact that each one is the vision of its maker of what a factory performance truck should be, make it fun to compare them. But just because we didn't chose the Raptor in an incredibly close contest doesn't mean we are hacks or that you have to agree. Drop us an e-mail or visit or Facebook page and let us know what you think, we love the dialogue with our readers. Just know that any of our tests come from a position of knowledge and we weigh the pros and cons to deliver a result that we feel best matches what our readers are looking for. We also try to be as fair as possible and give you enough information to come to your own conclusion. For 2011 with SelectShift, some of our complaints have been addressed with the Raptor. We also love the DIC. I'll be getting our 2011 Raptor long-termer later this month and am looking forward to spending time in it this year. --Sean [/QUOTE]
