Dual alternators really help when winching your vehicle and I would recommend them for the power wagon otherwise the drain on your battery will be greater and cause it to fail over time.
If you don’t have a winch or use your truck in an outfitter fashion (for work etc) the amount of reduced draw by circuits in the truck (led lights, modern technology) wouldn’t warrant dual alternators.

Re: I put my order in
I got the dual alternators specifically for winching. I've been off road a lot lately, but I must be doing something right, because the winch isn't getting any use. If I get a chance to cut some firewood in the National Forrest soon, I'll definitely be using the winch then.

To be honest dual alternators should not be an option on the PW, they should be standard. One alternator or a single battery is not sufficient.
