HP, bling, and lockers don’t help when your rig maneuvers like a beached whale.
KCcouger is right, if you want off road prowess, the 1/2 ton isn’t for you, go smaller with midsize or up to 3/4 ton and get a solid front axle at least.
If you MUST have a 1/2 ton, the work truck single cab standard bed will walk circles around a Tremor T-Rex bison Raptor or whatever on most technical terrain. Add lockers front and rear and you are still $20k -$30k cheaper the status trucks.
