Re: Powerwagon's best model year 2005-2020?

i've had an 05' and 12' pw. liked the 05' better than the 12'. 12' had more creature comfort and it does allowing for a growing family as was my case. 05' is more simple and i never had the throttle hesitation when putting the pedal to the metal in mud/snow going uphill. plus it's easier to see over...

Re: Traction control on 2011?

TC=Total Crap. Be glad you don't have it. If the main roads are in bad shape you should be driving slower anyway.

I've had (2) PW's, one with TC and one without. The 05' PW was awesome without TC.

Re: Lawn mower follies....

i was told by a mechanic not to use fuel stabilizer for the winter but to run aircraft grade fuel through for the winter.
