If it's about Power Wagons, all generations, this is where it'll go. This is the original PWR Forum Power Wagon Technical Discussion Section. And this includes everything that doesn’t fit in any one of the other categories related to the truck goes here!

I liked the "What are it's closest competitors?" section. Really hit the nail on the head for what the truck is built for and how it's different and better off-road than the Raptor or TRD Pro in certain aspects.

Copy. Thanks. I thought someone had started some sort of pro/con, or Rapurd/TRD vs. PW thread about where each shines and where each shits the bed.

I've always felt that the Raptor was an amazing truck for what it is meant to be. If I didn't need a 3/4 ton from time to time I'd have bought the Raptor over the Power Wagon, but there are times when the Raptor just isn't enough truck. My buddy has a Raptor and I really like the ride quality of it, and it's a lot of fun to drive, and the new Raptor with the rear locker and the front locker/torque drive thingy is a great upgrade. If money was no object I'd have a Raptor parked right next to my Power Wagon.
