What's your favorite then?
Of the ones currently in service, I think mine is the Delta 4 Heavy because it's so dramatic.
The Falcon Heavy is a close second and with the landing capability, it certainly has an added cool factor.
Of the current crop, I also think the Delta IV Heavy is the most dramatic. The Falcon Heavy was also pretty impressive.Of the ones currently in service, I think mine is the Delta 4 Heavy because it's so dramatic.

I always prefer liquid fueled rockets to solid fueled rockets - which always look to me like glorified Polaris missiles.
The Saturn family is still my favourite.
