Tim, easily!!! To me, most of Dierks' best music is merely good, whereas Tim is pretty consistently great. Dierks doesn't quite have anything bad enough to be equivalent to "Looking or That Girl" or "Truck Yeah", but at the same time he has never even come close to the incredible highs of "The Cowboy In Me", "Angry All The Time", "Please Remember Me", etc.

I haven't voted but it's really really hard to compare the sheer scope of Tim's body of work to Dierks', honestly. Tim debuted in 1994, nearly a full decade before Dierks, and his early records are straight FIRE.
In the years BOTH have been active, so 2003 to now, though, my choice would be Dierks.
So, ultimately, I'm split.

I feel like Tim has better quality overall but Dierks is really good as well.

Dierks!! If only because of Up On The Ridge ♥ But really, Dierks is better for me and my taste.

Tim. It’s hard though because I feel albums like Riser and Up on the Ridge really gave Dierks the platform to show his artistry. Tim is just more consistent and nostalgic for me.

I love both, but Dierks doesn't have a whole lotta "Top of the Worlds" or "Truck Yeahs" to his name. The only Dierks single that makes me want to throw myself in traffic is "What the Hell Did I Say". Dierks is more consistent, Tim can be a bit more hit or miss.
