A buddy of mine had a '46 DPW two truck and we could haul about anything with it! BTW, in '77 that was considered tricked out!

'77
05'
Oh, '46, all the way to the mud pit.
I'll bet that nobody that voted for the '46 would be able to drive it!
'46, followed closely by the '05. If the '05 came with the Cummins, the decision would be harder.
My uncle is in the process of restoring an early Power Wagon. I haven't been able to visit him in a few years, but last time I talked to him, it was running.

I'm a quick study. :lol:
Do you know what's different about them?
I have to go '77.
I had a '78!
The '05 is a total badass truck.
The '05 is majorly awesome.

No bias there! :lol:
I saw "Power Wagons" and I thought this was going to be RS2 vs. S4!
I voted '77, but I like this one better:

You'd lose that bet.

I doubt it has synchronized gears.
Does it even have power brakes or power steering?

The '05 Power Wagon comes with automatic lockers and automatically disconnecting anti-roll bars. You can control both right from the drivers seat. It also comes with a Warn winch built into the bumper. It is a kickass truck.

Oh, I know, I love 'em and if I needed a full size truck, the '05 Power Wagon would be the one I bought. I just wish that it had been available with the Cummins motor. It's a heavy unit though, something like 975 lbs. for a long block IIRC.
I could be wrong but I believe the 2005 Power Wagon was available with the Cummins, but now it's just the Hemi. A 6 speed manual is avialable with it, but not in a 1500 with the Hemi. I don't get it. Oh well. I would rather have a Hemi with an auto in a pickup anyway.
I had a 77 dodge pickup in high school (not a power wagon, just a 2wd) with a 360 V8. I did alot of crazy shit in that truck, so I picked the 77 for sentimental reasons only.
Raza, I thought about putting a disclaimer: We all know the current 5 series wins, so why vote?
