Best Is the Raptor. I've had a 2014 and now have a 2018.

Second, by a LONG shot is the 2019.2020 Silverado Trail Boss.

Next the ZR2

Distantly next the Power Wagon

3rd Gen Tacoma Sucks.

EVERY Gen of Tundra has sucked.

Anyone who says different doesn't "use" a truck...

City folks bragging about their adventures are a hoot...


What would make the Power Wagon so far down on your list? I haven't been in one very much (I drove an older one at a dealer that was a used piece of crap though), but always thought with all they offered they would be just the ticket unless you had to go fast.


Just what I posted above: Life Cycle Cost. IME they are GREAT trucks, just cost more at buy-in, cost more to feed, maintain, operate, insure, but don't bring enough at disposal to recoup. If performance vs cost is an overriding factor I'd definitely look at one...or the Raptor.


You can no more tell someone how to do something you've never done, than you can come back from somewhere you've never been...
