    Decision Coming in 2023

    You bring up a good point. My wife loves the PW and it's not out of the realm of possibility that she starts driving it if I get something new. There's also an equally good chance I just keep it and get anything else.

    Decision Coming in 2023

    I've had my PW since 2019. I've historically been pretty bad about not keeping vehicles that long. The PW is the first vehicle I've had where I haven't really seriously thought about trading it for something else (with the exception of a brief period last summer when I was considering getting...

    2021 Power Wagon Fuel Tank Stuck At 3/4 Fill Up.Will NOT Fill Up Beyond 3/4 Tank

    There’s one of these services (Yoshi) where I live in Nashville and I’ve used them for about 3 years. It’s the best $11 a month I’ve ever spent (that’s the service fee - the gas price is based on the average of the current price at the stations around you).

    Trade is high. Just ordered a new wagon.

    How does that work with the trade in? I'm assuming it will be several (many) months before the new one comes in. Will they guarantee trade in value as of today, or are you banking that values don't decrease between now and then?

    Using Airbags to fit in the garage?

    I wouldn't buy a home in a HOA. Not to overly stereotype, but I imagine most people that own PWs aren't HOA people - if they have the choice. At the end of the day though, it's not like you're not aware of the HOA being there when you buy the house (this is a general comment, not to the OP...

    Using Airbags to fit in the garage?

    As others have said it may be cheaper to raise your garage door than you think. You could also check into cutting out the concrete in the floor. If it’s just the lights hitting, you’ll just need a dip to coincide with when the lights reach the door. Also, you could study the language of your...

    How bad are short commutes really?

    I'm still debating on whether to keep my power wagon or trade for a cummins. Your reply makes me lean more towards the latter...

    How can I diagnose broken exhaust manifold bolt?

    Yes - I meant to mention that. It's still under warranty and I'll likely hit the three year mark before I hit the milage limit (bought the truck in Nov. 2019).

    How can I diagnose broken exhaust manifold bolt?

    I've got a 2019 PW and I'm noticing an increased ticking sound coming from the drivers side. It's not nearly as bad as some of the hemi tickets I've heard online, and I notice it most when driving. I feel like I hear it most in the first 10-15 mins of driving, which makes me think it may be a...

    How bad are short commutes really?

    Thanks for the replies. The lack of other input leads me to believe that short trips aren’t the best for a diesel, especially if I’m not making long trips on the weekend (which I may go a weekend without doing). Most weeks I’m only using between 10-12 gallons of gas, so I’m definitely not a...

    How bad are short commutes really?

    I've got a 2019 power wagon and considering trading it for a new 2500 with a cummins. I've got a few reasons why a cummins would be better for me, but I also have reasons why it wouldn't (one big one being the cost). I would like perspective on how big an issue short commutes are with diesels...

    PW Pulling a Camper

    Thanks for the info. I do have a WDH (assuming you mean weight distribution hitch) and anti-sway bar on it in addition to the air bags. I was able to find this online regarding the towing capacity of the 2019: "The Power Wagon claims a base weight of 6,907 pounds, payload of 1,660 pounds, GVWR...

    PW Pulling a Camper

    Thanks for the replies so far. I don't think I'll ever hit the max towing capacity of the PW with what I've got. Mopar says the towing capacity of my 2019 is 10,350 lbs. The dry weight of the trailer is 7,688 and it has a max carrying capacity of 2,012. So I'd max out the weight on the...

    PW Pulling a Camper

    I bought my PW at the end of 2019 (it's a 2019 model) without really intending to use it to pull anything. I bought it mainly for its looks and off road capabilities, although I definitely don't do any serious off roading and have yet to take it off road other than driving through some fields...

    75th axle unlock light

    I've got a 2019 and my axle unlock light blinks occasionally. I haven't noticed it in a couple months though (knocks on wood). It did it from day one when I bought it new, but it was sporadic. After a couple thousand miles, I changed the diff oil and cleaned the sensors. That helped, but...

    New Power Wagon Owner - rookie question

    I assumed the sleeve only came with the synthetic rope, and was thinking that the 17s still had the cable rather than synthetic rope.

    New Power Wagon Owner - rookie question

    My sleeve was under the rear seat, bundled together with the winch controller and some winch related paperwork.

    Does Your PW Get Around? (Tour the States)

    Only four so far for me: TN (home state) KY GA NC I've considered making a cross-country trip to Oregon to see family, so if we do that then I'll have a lot more states to add to the list.

    2019 Power Wagon - Axle Unlock Light Blinking

    Mine 2019 has done it since I bought it new. Changing the diff fluid and cleaning the magnets helped, but it still does it periodically. Sometimes it will do it several days in a row, and sometimes I'll go for a month or two and not notice it. It seems to always do it within the first 5 miles...

    Steering Stabilizer Upgrade from Stock?

    Thanks - that's what I was wondering. If a new one would really make that much difference. I'll keep what I have for a while and if it gets worse, then I may invest in a new SS.

    Steering Stabilizer Upgrade from Stock?

    The shop I use does both of those things. I watched them when they initially mounted the tires, and they tested them then broke them back down and spun the wheel within the tire to get it to the best point of natural balancing before needing to add weights. It feels less like a vibration due...

    Steering Stabilizer Upgrade from Stock?

    I have a 2019 PW. I have Ridge Grapplers in 35s. They have about 8000 miles on them. I started noticing a shimmy at about 60 mph. I had them balanced and rotated last week and that helped (I know I probably went too long before getting them rotated), but I still notice the shimmy slightly at...
