Proud of my PW

BigLazer4u · Feb 25, 2021

Pulled out a new Ford F-250 tremor today that was stuck next to another regular F250 near a duck blind they were working on. Used my winch on one and then grabbed the other with a yankum rope.. had a 50 foot rooster tail slinging **** all over those fords.. didn’t even have to lock in the front differentials..

With that being said.. be proud of your wagon, because I sure am. What a beast of a truck..not only did I pull them out but I also drove through the same spot they got stuck to go get all there carpentry equipment..You would think those new tremors would be able to go the same places the PW can.. but they cannot.

Strange, if you were not locked and the ground was not more then 12” off level, I don’t see much difference if you did not have to lock the front. The Tremor has 35s AT and a rear locker. Maybe weight?

Very likely operator error... I've seen some very capable vehicles get either stuck, spun out of control or just downright totaled over operator error.

trail, yea you are right I’m running toyo MTs and they were running some type of MT I didn’t look to see what brand. When I pulled up it almost looked like the front end on their trucks took a noise dive, those diesels are so much heavier in the front.

Its basically got front and rear lockers... the front is more like a limited slip though so not a true locker.

LeesEvoX · Feb 25, 2021

Biggest factors in that are the weight of those diesels. And i feel we can be pretty certain that they didnt air down the tires.

Regardless. It was still a Ram PW pulling out a ford Tremor.

You need to video these things and get them on youtube!!!! lol.

Awesome story...ive had a bunch of cars and trucks over the years incl a string of very nice Mercedes that I loved....that said I've never been more happy than buying and esp driving the 75A PW...what a frieking machine!

Agreed. Kinda stated that. Certainly better than an open diff.

I've owned two K5 Blazers an 82 and an 89, An 84 S10 V6 RC 4X4 BE NICE LOL ! A 93 Nissan Ext Cab V6 5spd 4X4 , a 98 Toyota Tacoma V6 Ext Cab 5spd, and an 04 Chevy Z71 " I Still own". As much as I liked my K5's, my Toyota and my 04 Chevy. I have never owned a 4X4 that made me feel as Confident. Or as Capable with. No matter how I modified them. As my Power Wagon does in it's Stock form. I feel . This Beast will take me anywhere I want to go. Just like it is. But I'm still putting on 35's anyway.

Bet the gas version of the Tremor would have done better in that mud.

This is interesting and fun to read. I kinda wondered how the Tremor would do off road. Maybe I’ll head over and check out some YouTube vids.
