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.

I don't know where you got those numbers, but the Dmax is a nearly 10k option just for the diesel. You can get a Ford with the 6.4 for far less than a Chevy. And the 6.4 is a lot stronger than the 6.6. It has best in class hp, tq, and towing capacity, and is 3k less for the engine.
