Is the 300,000 lbs towing capacity a misprint?
Huh. On a side note, when I end up traveling to the western slope, I'll be sure to drop you a line and we can power wagon together
OK, an electric Tesla AWD pickup can tow up to 300,000 pounds, whereas, an electric F-150 has already demonstrated a towing capacity of 1,250,000 pounds. Both have instant full torque when one touches the accelerator. If in 2024 an electric Power Wagon was designed to tow 1,575,000 pounds (three (3) built circa 1969 Apollo 11 moon rockets @ 525,000 pounds each*), what tires would hold up best under the torque?
*Sorry, I retired after 36 years in Aerospace and Defense working directly with aerospace engineers/rocket scientists on boring stuff at some locations in the middle of nowhere. Therefore, my future PW build has to be able to tow some very large rockets versus a load of pork & beans.
Michael Harpe, I did temporary work in Marietta, Georgia for some time way back in 1982 on the US Force C-5 & C-130 as a Manufacturing Engineer. Haven't been to Georgia since then. It's a long drive from Georgia to Moab, but the Colorado Plateau is huge, beautiful, and worth exploring.
Thanks to @viking1204 for asking if I had a build thread. Gave me the push to start one. Granted it probably wont have any updates for a while since I'm lacking of funds right now lol.
Trixie is a 2018 with almost every option available. Currently I have a flowmaster 50 series american thunder exhaust, rough country
I'd do a locking gas cap over a fuel door, but where I am currently at I dont have fuel theft as a concern. When I start traveling though I'll make sure to put one on.Are you considering a locking fuel door? I was hoping to see a PW with one. I was thinking that a black one, would not look to bad. My wife’s Durango has one from the factory but that was not an option for us.
I'm taking this to mean a hold doesn't hold them lolGlad that you will get them!
If you had put a HOLD for 10 days far in advance with FedEx due to the delivery was scheduled for when you're out of town, they always deliver it immediately upon its arrival at the distribution center!
BTW, I worked in Colorado for UPS delivering during the winter of 2016-2017. Happy that I no longer do. Our UPS driver soley crashed the truck last winter.
