Considering purchasing a Power Wagon

[Firebird]

Found a nice 2016 Power Wagon in a Big Horn package that I really like, has 4.10 gears too. What are these generally selling for and how do those of you that have one like it? Thanks.

Also check volume dealers like **** Smith and Dennis Dillon online inventories. Dennis has three, two have an MSRP of $55,065, selling for $44,215 (or less if you qualify for additional incentives).

Firebird... the powerwagons (all trims) only come with 4.10s, so no need to worry about not getting them.

They are bad ass looking except for some of the bed graphics. Personally don't like all that.
I really considered one but didn't think it was worth the extra $4-5,000 for items I doubt I would use very often (winch, locking diff., & a few other goodies.) If I had the extra money laying around I definitely would have gone that route whether I needed the items or not.
Most that I have seen are going for about $55,000 & most around here aren't moving either so a good deal might be had where you live too.
Good luck with your search!

I agree, but I look at it from a standpoint of (better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it). I know 4WD for sure, but locking diffs are questionable.

Just finished driving the Power Wagon. Nice truck and rides better than I expected, however, man was that thing slow. I guess I expected more out of the 6.4, but I guess the combination of weight and lack of 8 speed just kills it. Still a nice truck, but my 1500 would run circles around it!

My truck is almost 7200lbs so figure the Power Wagon is probably a couple hundred lbs heavier with the winch, sway bar mechanisms, etc. So it's a very heavy truck compared to the 1/2 ton.

In my experience, the motor does wake up a little over time. It also runs a little better on mid grade/premium. You can now buy headers, tuners, intakes, etc for the 6.4 as well. But still, it won't likely outrun any new Hemi 1500's.

Are you going to be towing heavy with the Power Wagon and if you are thinking about towing heavy you might want to look at the towing chart for them, but if that don't matter I wouldn't worry.

I wish they'd stuck with the 4.56's, but that with the 6.4 would probably be overkill.

I will actually be doing no towing at all. Just love the looks of the Power Wagon! I am still very impressed with the ride quality, way better than my 13 Mega Cab

I was looking over at Moes Performance and saw the long tubes and other goodies. They would really wake that 6.4 up!

They have one here in MD that is marked down to 45K....I agree nice looking truck but I was able to get more for less on the truck I bought....Still Bad A$$ looking truck though and I agree if I had extra cash laying around I would have grabbed one..

what exactly were you expecting from a heavy duty truck? compared to other 2500/3500's the 6.4 with 4.10s moves pretty good.

 

[bcbouy]

it'll also pull a 1500 in circles all day,every day.

I agree. I have a 2014 PW and it's plenty quick. What do you expect form. 3/4 4x4?
