2500HD Powerwagon

Any one have a Power Wagon. I saw one. I think I might order one if it comes with or I can get an 8Ft. Bed Crew Cab. But hen again maybe get the Mega Cab. :roflsquared:

The power wagon only comes in the crew cab 6'4" box configuration, and only with the 6.4 hem and 4.10's.

Not sure that it would matter to you, but think the power wagon has less towing/ hauling capacity that the Bighorn 2500. Not sure about specs with Mega cab though.

the power wagon does have less towing capabilities but it does have more off road capabilities.

In a way it does because of the vast reduction in payload. So that 12000 pound trailer better have only 10% tongue weight or you will be out of payload.

But it has like 8" more articulation in the front than a standard 2500.

The ONLY way you can order a power wagon is crew cab, 6'4" bed, 6.4 hemi w/ 4.10 gears.

Your right, but nothing is free. You can get a power wagon and get airbags to help with the low payload but those said airbags run around $800 plus installation.

Its a dang shame you cant get the Power Wagon in the single cab setup. Not everyone wants their truck to be a grocery getter.

They're very rare but there are a few reg cab 8ft bed 3rd gen power wagons out there
I want to say you could get a manual in it as well but I'm not 100%

You are correct for grins I got on autotrader and looked up power wagons under dodge 2500 so 2010 and older 4 trucks came up 3 06 and 1 10. There was a reg cab long bed manual I was shocked.

These powerwagons are the rubicons of our trucks. I love everything about them, in fact i wish i had all their capabilities off road, however I do not like that the payload is lower. The locking axles, electronic disconnect sway bars really make the truck flex and power through everything.

What I do not like about the Power Wagon is that it comes with only a 6.4in bed. I almost want to buy one rather than a Bighorn 2500 CC. I really like all the standard equipment.

It comes with the shorter bed so it can still get around off road and rock crawling, if it had an 8ft bed that thing would be near impossible to take off road because it's too long lol

I like the power wagon but they're hard to find and good luck getting a discount on one. If you're looking in that price range anyway I would love to have one. I prefer the better off road capability to payload for my wants/needs.

If you get one, please don't get those stickers, so ugly.

"She Who Must be Obeyed" said if I got one she did not like it with the Funky Looking Decals!
I don't like them either it can be ordered without the decals though.
