My next ride!

So as many of you already know, I've begun a long conquest in search of my next off-road demon...So far, I've previewed the new stumpjumper with rear brain up at split rock and it blew my mind...similar to my first experience in a high pursuit chase when I was 19 and some jokers with bright flashing lights kept trying to slow me down...I just put my head down, closed my eyes and let the bike do the work. Needless to say, I was seriously impressed with the stumpjumper. However, for trails such as split-rock, I have an '05 Enduro which, though fairly heavy, is a monster on highly technical trails. That being said, I really don't see the need for another bike with gobs of suspension. This brings me to my next option, the bike of all bikes, an "Epic". It seems silly to even consider anything else, but I would like to see if any of you feel that I should look into any other rides before I make my final decision...Thoughts??
