I would have to agree. It really does appear that many 350/3500 owners look down their nose at the half ton offerings and in this case lump them together in a way that doesn't apply. As much as you guys know about your big trucks, many of you are truly ignorant to the capabilities and improvements in the half ton market.
The Raptor is in a class by itself.
The Rebel is a lightly modified 1500 with some improved off-road capability, but mostly cosmetic.
The Power Wagon is in a class by itself too, and is still plenty capable as a TV. It's definitely no half ton either, so not sure why it was brought up.
