Next Gen PW - air suspension

[jbprof]

Are there any trending thoughts or substantial rumors about the next gen PW's suspension? As the thread title suggests, I'm specifically curious whether or not it's conceivable for a beefed up version of the gen5 half-ton's air suspension to find its way into the next PW. While air suspension may not ideal for some of the PW's use cases, it would go a long way to helping those with bum knees, hips or backs get in & out of the truck as we age ungracefully

Having traded my '16 rebel for a '17 power wagon, I can attest to the lowering capability of air suspension. With that said the power wagon comes with everything the rebel lacks. I would not trade a single feature just to have the truck lower two inches. Every mod I did to the rebel was standard or an option on the power wagon, like the winch as an example. The power wagon IS a rebel on steroids and I would not have it any other way.

Having bad knees, hips, and, back, I'm confined to a wheelchair now having suffered multiple airborne combat injuries. You are right, it's not gracefull in any way. I do however, come up with fantastic work arounds to allow me to enjoy the power wagon.

Christy, Glad to see that you are making a work around to enjoy your Power Wagon. My 94 year old mother-in law with both knees having had surgery and only walks with a walker is able to to get into our Power Wagon via a Gorilla brand aluminum work platform. So do my 92 year old step Mom and my 91 year old WWII veteran father use that stand.
