Uh...Base Dmax powerd 2009 Silvy 2500HD is 34.3. Ford F250 HD with weaker Powerstroke and 5spd auto (Allison in the Silvy is 6), is 33.4.
Dodge with Cummings is 35.3k

So even with Silvy's brand new platform, stronger engine, and stronger trans, its mid priced to the suckass Dodge and weaksause wana be F250.

As for a Dmax equiped Silvy vs the Raptor over the same terrain...uh no, the Raptor would tear it apart most likely.
