the Ramboxes hold everything I need. Recovery gear on one side, fishing gear on the other.

Fishing Trip

Took my buddies fishing today. It was a fly in lake, but we drove in. Caught our limit ( 5 pike a piece ) within two hours. We had an awesome fish fry tonight! uploadfromtaptalk1375591697807.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1375591714575.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1375591730183.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1375591741803.jpg ...

Re: Power Wagon Top Speed?

They are governed at 100mph (160km/h) at around 3000rpm in my 2012. Ungoverned, I have buried the speedo (120mph) in my old 2010 2500 w/ hemi & 4.10s.

Re: Power Wagon Picture Thread

I think my nav system was a little confused. We were at least 10 miles off the "unpaved road".

Re: When is the Hemi tick, not the Hemi tick?

Nope, no codes. I just had both manifolds replaced on my 2010. Three broken studs, and both manifolds were a little warped.

Never threw a code, but you could really hear the leak when it was cold.

Not sure about stainless, but I would go straight for stage 8 header bolts. You won't regret it.

Re: 2014 Power Wagon or 2014 Cummins

My wife just went for a 700km trip (one way) in my power wagon towing a 7000lb camper. I'll let you know what kind of mileage she got come Monday. I usually fill the truck up every two weeks driving about 5 miles one way to work every day, and racking up miles on the weekend having fun. I sit around...

Re: gotta little problem

So now they are ordering an entire new front axle assembly. Cant wait to hear the time estimate to get that delivered and installed. I waited ...

Re: 2012 Fuel Tank Capacity

Also, my buddy has a 2012 2500 laramie longhorn with the hemi, and he has managed to get 33 or so gallons in to his.

I might have to throw a Jerry can in the back, and see how long it will run past empty.

I've had two 2010s (still drive one every day), and I can definitely get 32+ gallons in to them from empty.

2012 Fuel Tank Capacity

Does anyone know if the 2012's came with a smaller tank than previous model year power wagons? I swear they used to come with a 34gal tank, but I'm sure I have never gotten more than about 27 gallons in to my truck.

Anybody have any ideas, or is my fuel gauge just out of whack?

Re: '13 interior squeak/rubbing

I have the same noise. It's definitely the transfer case shifter. Not sure how to make it go away.. Maybe just need to put some more miles on it & it will go away on it's own luge stubie said.

Re: 10' and up PW question.

My 2010 trx4 had the same wheels as the powerwagon, and they had a double bead. I didn't get to see, but I was told that the tire shop had a bit of fun putting new tires on them.

Re: How much of an issue is traction control on the '12s?

Regardless if the TC is off, or what tire you're using for tires, rear axle hop will be the limiting factor in snow or mud. That's just what the stock springs do... Ain't that the truth. Axle hop is the worst feeling when you're crawling through deep snow. If you get the tires spinning enough, you ...

Re: Locker light theory

It's a rust & corrosion prevention product. It works very well as an undercoat, or on electrical connections. It keeps water out, somewhat like wd40.
