powwagkup; I haven't found one yet. There are some 4x4 groups but they all drive narrow Jeeps and are doing some trails I'm not comfortable taking my new truck on yet. Don't even have the new plates on it yet! Jailer and I are going on October 22nd to drive Rule Ridge Trail north of woodland park if your interested. You can find our more on traildamage or other websites. looks like it will be real easy. May take some of the side trails too. PM me if your interested. I would love to get a Colorado group going or even meet up with a big group in Moab sometime!

Hi everyone, New Power Wagon owner here, had it for a month and a half now, 750 miles on it. 2016 Tradesman White. Love it. I am adding some mods already. Live in Mesa AZ

I added Mopar side steps, like the look, i know it creates a little ground clearance issue, so may change to AMPs at some point. I have front springs and shocks on order to level from DOR. I also just changed rear shocks to Fox replacements , I only drove into work today since switching, but It seems to ride smoother, kind of takes the Jar out of the rear. Will see how it goes.

A few pics. if I can post correctly. LOL Rob

Hey there guys! I've been peeking around this forum for about a month in the slightest hopes that a business deal would go through and I would end up in one of these awesome wagons... Well, it did, and here I am!

Here is what I just sold:

IMG_3132.JPG
And here is what I'm in now!

ImageImageImageImage

I got such a smoking deal that I sold my '92 cummins and bought my 2011 PW and still have play money left over!

Now that I am here of course I will attach my social security and bank account numbers for your wise use.

I forgot to label those pictures there. I took the wagon out to the Mojave desert after I had it for a day and decided that marriaging my Toyo and a rock at a high rate of speed was a good move. New Toyos on the way, and maybe something a little more special to come...Image

BLM: It is! I am trying to figure out the name of the agency, but I know it was used for law enforcement at a conservation agency near Ruidoso, New Mexico. They were the ones who put the bumper and wheels on. Interesting budget...

Mule: Thanks man, I used to own a few cummins trucks and loved how helpful those forums were, but I was never into tuning or power mods. This rig and forum fit me much better already.
