Re: Got a new PW - here's "The list"

I'll probably want to do something about the headlights, too. I'm surprised how dim they are

Yep, checked that too. Most of it is used by the subwoofer for the Alpine sound system which BTW sounds QUITE good :)

Re: Couple of technical questions from a potential PW owner

I wonder if there are any places left I haven't checked.....

So far I've looked in the 2 glove boxes in front of the front passenger seat, I have looked in the center console and under the center front seat and I have looked in the in-floor storage in front of the rear seats.

Also looks like they forgot to give me the winch controller and the winch hook.

Now take her out, get her dirty, and have some fun
It's kinda funny... I think.... the truck was all splashed in mud when I test drove it. They got 95% of it cleaned off by the time I took delivery.

Re: Couple of technical questions from a potential PW owner

Well, I sold my H1 yesterday. Weird how we get attached to our trucks sometimes. I definitely have a bit of the "No truck blues" today So, anyways: I'm naturally even more so thinking about a nice new PW and have thought about a few things: The stock PW, as awesome as it is (and that's pretty awesom...

Re: Couple of technical questions from a potential PW owner

Thought of one more question, this one isn't very technical:

All that "flame job" stuff on the sides of the truck. Is that stickers which can be removed or is it part of the actual paint job?

In other words: Could i get a dealer to peel it off, or would I need to find / order one without it?

Re: Couple of technical questions from a potential PW owner

Hi all, Things are progressing (slowly) and I *might* be getting closer to getting a shiny new PW. How is the transmission cooled? Does it have its own dedicated cooler or is it integrated with something else such as the engine cooler? How is the engine oil cooled? Is the transfer case cooled? If s...

Re: Couple of technical questions from a potential PW owner

As a follow up question:

If any of you have put 35's on your PW, how is it handling that in terms of regular on-road handling? I'm not super concerned about gas mileage or acceleration (keeping in mind what I am comparing to, LOL)

Re: Couple of technical questions from a potential PW owner

And its abilitys will surpass the H1 in some areas. But dam the H1 is badass lol. At least you are used to under 10mpg already lol. Well, for starters the PW will be light years more comfortable, LOL. And, yes, the H1 is badass and exceptionally capable off road. It's also unbelievably heavy on mai...

Re: Couple of technical questions from a potential PW owner

They are engineered very well as far as your line of questioning and you should have no issues. Unless you're looking at seriously modifying the systems. Maybe your purpose for the truck are outside the realm of what we would use them for. Hehehe, good point. I'm actually not planning on running mi...

New to the forum - possibly new owner

Hi everyone, I own a 1997 H1 Hummer and am pondering letting it go and get a Power Wagon instead. I love my H1 but the maintenance cost is growing to a point where it's no fun. I'm beginning the process of educating myself on the Power Wagon and would appreciate any insight or advice anyone could pr...
