You have one, but is it for sale? If yes, details please (your profile says "stockish", please explain).

6.1 SRT8 swap, ported polished thitek heads.... ported/polished 6.1 intake manifold.... makes about 600-650hp at the crank. Still runs on pump gas. Custom clutch made by Trav's 4x4 to hold the power. 10.5 rear axle was swapped for a 11.5. And a lot of other stuff I'm forgetting... lol

Sounds awesome! BUT I am looking more for a Power Wagon closer to stock and less "stockish". Looking for reliability and usability, small camper pulling and horse trailer pulling as well as daily driver-type status, while still able to do long distance backcountry exploring/wheeling.

I could put a fresh 5.7 back in it.... I would require a deposit on that though...

It will indeed pull a trailer, I am sure of it! Thanks for the offer to swap out the motor for a fresh 5.7, but I am really looking for an unmodified truck. Good luck with the sale

Thanks for the link! I have been in talks with him on that one, and he was going to try and sell it locally before we negotiated the price any more (there were some defects) and the deal has stalled out. I haven't been able to get a hold of him so he may have sold it...

I had looked at 06 PW in Canada a couple months ago. Low miles, one owner, great exchange rate. But I could not get it across the border. Chrysler (unlike Ford or GM) will not write a letter of compliance for a Canada spec car to a US citizen. I went to an importer who could get it across if they held it at the border for 6 months for $600, but they could not import any Rams of that vintage because of the outstanding safety recall on the air bags, with no date set on when parts are to arrive. Because it's an outstanding safety issue, it is not allowed to be imported until it is resolved. That coupled with the speedometer being in Km/hr, I took Canada off of list of potential trucks for the moment. It may not be impossible to get a Canada spec Power Wagon across the border, but there are indeed some major obstacles!

Sale Pending! I have located a 06' Power Wagon with a G56 Manual Trans in California. Vehicle has been inspected by a Dodge dealership, CarFax is clean. Conveniently the seller has a nephew that graduates high school about 20 minutes away from me and will be bringing the PW on a trailer Mid-May. Now the waiting game. Thanks for the help everyone!
