Congrats on the new PW, welcome to the family. Must live somewhere real snowy judging by the # of snow shovels in the garage, great weather for the wagon! :D

18 mile and van dyke area - not too far from lakeside. I did not grow up in this area but I've been here for over a year now. Yea let me know if you take it up!

The furthest south i have gone wheeling is rocks and valleys in harrison, or silver lake sand dunes.
Ha believe me I try to escape the city when I can. Need to get away from the hectic life every now and then. I am actually planning a trip out to silver lake in may.

Be sure to lube the o-rings with silicone lube like Dow Corning 111 (it is not silicone sealant as it never dries, it is a lubricant)

It may be tough to remove if it was put in dry by the last person to service it.
Thanks for the help! I will have to check it out this weekend. I notice some differences - I do not have plug wires like the 05 and my engine oil dipstick is located near the left bank. Lets hope the pcv is the same as 05.

Hi I'm Dave, I recently sold my 06 ram 3500 to buy my new 15 powerwagon. I've only had it for about a week and I'm all smiles.

I'll be using it for camping duties pulling our small travel trailer and hauling a couple of dirt bikes as well as fishing and hunting trips.

I was worried going from a tuned 5.9 to the 6.4, but other than the mileage difference so far no regrets.

We were in kinda a rush at the dealer so this is the only pic so far

New to the forum. Just purchased a 2015 PW. I am in Santa Rosa, CA. Traded in my 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser for the PW. Immediately drove to Santa Monica for the Easter weekend and put 970 miles on it. Loving the truck. We have a cabin in the Sierras with lots of great off-roading close by. Looking forward to putting the PW through it's paces. Thanks to the forum and all the posters for all the great info, definitely helped me with my decision to buy. Now lets' see if I can post some pics. ( I don't see an upload button, is there a link for posting pics? ) Thanks, Ken

Lol I played that game with my previous Diesels. My 06 was a rolling snowball of Thuren and Carli bits, change one thing then something else needs to be upgraded to work with the previous change you made and so on. I'm done for now.

Ok I might do some stuff to it.

But nothing major.
