Iv owned over 10 trucks in the last 15 years from Toyota, Ram and Ford. 2.7 & 3.5 ecoboost, tacoma, 2 4Runners, 3 tundras, ext..and a 2020 power wagon. Fords were unreliable and the Toyotas were bulletproof but the 2020 power wagon was something else.. just a real truck that could take anything and did everything well. It will be the truck I tell my grandkids about.

How was the reliability of your Power Wagon? I've read that they're solid but wondered if you had any insights.

@TheMystro1971 10 ай бұрын

The Power Wagon is in its own league in off-road vehicles. It’s designed to be overbuilt x10 compared to other HD trucks. It doesn’t need 35”ers because the 33”ers perform better off road and the PW it’s not a poser truck. Let’s not even compare a Rebel to a Power Wagon as they are not even close in their off road design and capabilities. There really is nothing even close to what the Power Wagon can do off road. If you know trucks and go seriously off road with them, you know why the dna in the Power Wagon is very unique.

Legendary truck. I hope Ram never stops making it. Crazy it’s almost been 20 years since bringing it back. Been one of the most, if not the most capable pickup trucks ever made. Prices only seem high due to inflation and many haven’t caught up to it yet. The dollar just isn’t worth as much. Everything went up in price.

@Obamanamamama Жыл бұрын

That’s ridiculous to say, yes inflation is a thing but hearing that 4 years ago people got there’s off the lot for 55k now msrp starts at 70 before options and dealer markups. You’re telling me at the least the dollar is worth 20% less then 4 years ago? No this is very obvious price gouging

@patriot5526 6 ай бұрын

People rank on the PW for lack of towing capability and payload, and that’s true, until you have to tow something where angels fear to tread. I have a 2019, and with the GCVWR of 18,000, and GVR of 8000, and my fat butt of 250 lbs, I can haul about 6000 pounds of hay. Not much you say, but I can haul that load up the side of a mountain, through a creek, and through 3’ of snow in a pasture. Try that in your 30,000 lb hauling diesel. If you do, the only thing that can save you will be a Power Wagon.

Driving on the streets in the winter, I'd much rather have a limited slip in the rear than a locker. In N Idaho I would want that for 4 months out of the year vs. the number of times I would take an $80k truck deep enough off the road to actually need a rear locker over a mechanical limited slip.

The real thing is can the 6.4 do everything a gas engine should be able to do in a truck like this. The answer: yes!!!! So, I hate how everyone compares to the GM and the Ford Godzilla. Just because their numbers are a bit higher, doesn’t make those engines more capable.

I am looking at a Power Wagon to tow an off road travel trailer I do not give a damn about soft touch, digital displays, or how cool it looks. All that bull shit is just more things to break down and cause the truck to support Ram's shops. What is important is the front and rear lockers, sway bar disconnect, & winch and how well it will tow an off road travel trailer on two track trails.

I was in the market for a 5.7L 1500 Rebel but ended up considering one of these after seeing my local dealership having DEEP discounts on them until I figured out why. The 1500 Rebel has higher payload and towing capacity at the same time being quicker acceleration and less fuel consumption. That’s 4 strikes right off the get go to the average crew cab truck buyer. Don’t get me wrong it’s a beautiful truck and very capable off-road. However, it won’t do HD stuff as well as others, and won’t do daily truck commuter stuff as well as others either. Who is this for?

@spxram4793 Жыл бұрын

15,040 towing capacity on my regular 2500. I guess you have to understand the suspension that is on this power wagon versus a regular 2500. The Power Wagon is made to flex not carry things, Therefore with lighter duty springs equal more flex, but you lose Towing capacity and payload, by the way my payload is 4010 pounds.

@andrewcarr2416 Жыл бұрын

Yes, you have to understand suspension basics to understand why this truck can't tow more than that. My regular 2500 is good for 15040 towing and 4010 payload. When you drive both of these you feel the difference immediately.

You better be aware when you buy a new Ram Truck and need it serviced, the dealerships service departments are telling people that are weeks out to get you in and then when you drop it off, they are telling peoples its up to 5 days before they look at it. So you will be without a vehicle for a week or 2, that's if your vehicle is under warranty. It took us more than a month to get a oil change. The deal is they are selling more vehicles than they can service, so if your new vehicle breaks down, you may be without a truck for a month. That's in Austin Texas.
