    Trip Report Power Wagons in Moab 2018

    Before 37s. So far I've still managed 10 in town, and I'd expect to get about the same on the highway, I've effectively gone from 4:10 to 3:66. Just can't get in a hurry towing.

    Trip Report Power Wagons in Moab 2018

    In town commuting (90th south from mountain view to I-15) I get about 10 mpg. I've gotten as much as 14 mpg on long road trips when I wasn't pushing over 70 mph. Towing is generally around 7-8, paying really close attention to the instant mpg gauge on the steep hills. It'll run up Parley's at 55...

    Trip Report Power Wagons in Moab 2018

    That's the consensus of the Power Wagon groups, they're just too soft for these trucks when they're aired down. One member went through 9 tires in the Vegas area on Discount Tire certs in less than 2 years. I just replaced mine at 18k miles, there was maybe 2k left on them. Replaced them with...

    Tire deflators: which style and why?

    I've had a set of Staun deflators for about 10 years, and they always let me down :) Great quality, put them on and walk away for a few minutes and harass everyone using the one at a time dial deflators. I've also put them on and started down a trail, and pulled them off 5 minutes later when...

    Trip Report Power Wagons in Moab 2018

    A group of Power Wagons showed up in Moab this April (the "official" event was cancelled due to permitting issues). We setup camp out on BLM land south of Moab, and one thing I really love about the Wagons is being able to tow a 10k trailer. One day we ran to the top of Moab Rim (stock...

    2017 Power Wagon

    Stock axles, he's running the Dynatrac free spin kit. I love that truck, but that AEV package is 38K + the cost of the truck :eek2:

    2017 Power Wagon

    I don't unfortunately. We had 7 Power Wagons and a 2nd Gen 2500 Stick run Hell's Gate: It's hard to capture just how steep it feels, but this is the entrance: Put the sliders to work: Decent Control was awesome, set to 0.6mph: Plenty of power up the exit: Album...

    2017 Power Wagon

    I was down in Moab last week for the Power Wagons in Moab event, and I had a great time with this truck. The biggest surprise was how well the Hill Descent system worked going down Hell's Gate. Seven Mile Rim: Silver Crack: The only ding I got was on Hell's Revenge exit, dropped the...

    2017 Power Wagon

    I got this mount in the mail today from Bayou Goat Mount, and I'm very impressed with the quality. It's 1/8 steel, and a very nice paint/poly finish on the top for suction cup mounts. There's two screws under the rubber mat in the top coin tray, and this mount uses the same screws...

    2015 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel

    I was looking pretty hard for an EcoDiesel, then somehow I ended up with a Power Wagon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I've read that the DieselGate emission fixes for VW in europe are hurting fuel economy, and I imagine the same thing will happen with the EcoDiesel if they have to recall. There is the Duramax 2.8L...

    2017 Power Wagon

    I had Duratracs on a 3500 Cummins, and while they are a fantastic tire as far as performance, I only got 20k miles out of them. Hopefully I get more out of this set. I know what you mean about the grill, I've had several Dodge trucks over the years, and the Rebel grill tickled my fancy this time...
