Nice review. I have 25,000 miles on a 2017 Power Wagon. Best vehicle I have owned! Still no rattles of any kind. Incredibly quiet and comfortable on the freeway for long drives. Raised suspension, but still low enough to get into almost all parking garages. Purchased it for the towing capacity with the convenience of a gas engine. Don’t take it off road much, but like the thought that I can if the need arrises. My daughter drove it part of the time on our trip to Arizona for graduate school. She now drives a Toyota Rave 4, but tells me she wants to get a Power Wagon when she gets out of school. Not for off road, but for comfort on the freeway and the visibility of sitting up above other traffic. If you drive conservatively you can expect just over 15 mpg on long freeway trips. Don’t expect to get more than 13 mpg for general day to day use. I does have a 6.4 L Hemi, so sometimes it is only natural to ignore maximizing mpg. ;-)
Erik Baldwin Do you mean read? I don’t think you “heard” me say anything unless you can “hear” over the internet.. so I guess that makes you remedial if you think what I said was dumb Lmao 😂
I saw onCZcams where they chained the Raptor and the Power Wagon together at the rear to see who could pull who.The Ram drug the Raptor like it was a Tonka toy !
Sorry, Power Wagon hands down if we're talking about straight up off-road capability. Every time this debate comes up, someone will bring up that the Raptor finished the Baja 1000. And, yes... that is true. Instead of dismissing that, I'll give it credit where it's due. Despite being an awesome race, the Baja is somewhere in the middle of rally racing and off-roading. Kind of the best of both worlds without being the best at either. Baja trophy trucks are engineered more for speed and shock absorption over any type of hard core off-road performance, while still being capable of going off-road. Another fun fact is those trophy trucks most people picture when hearing the word Baja... are 2 wheel drive. If I wanted to fly over sand dunes and just open it up in the fields, the Raptor would be my choice between the two. But if I wanted to go through various terrain where my worries were more along the lines of "Think she'll make it?" as opposed to "How fast do you think she can make it?", I'd be jumping in the Power Wagon.
@@aaron___6014 Essentailly yes. Had a roll cage installed, a different fuel cell and off road lights. Other than that, think the shocks were tuned a little.
Checkout the AEV Prospector. It's a RAM 2500 or 3500 Laramie built to off road on 37s to 40s with the stock payload & max tow of the non modded truck. Basically a Power Wagon on steroids. Oh... And I believe it comes with the Cummings.
Very well done video. I search for new Power Wagon content daily and I was happy to see a proper review that wasn't footage from the media invite like everyone else is doing. Keep up the good work! 👍
I’ve put my Ram 1500 in park while driving 70mph.. It is foul proof, and it doesn’t do anything but flashes the shifter light. It also has a safety feature that won’t let you go into park unless you are going less than 2mph.
I have wanted a Power wagon since I have been a kid, I'm now 55. I will be buying one or ordering one this year if I can not find Exactly what I want. Long time coming. My current RAM has 255+k on it
My goal is to get a decent deal when 2020 comes around. Awesome review! I’m was already pretty sold on this truck, but now it’s definitely a green light go for me
Great review! I have a 2018 Powerwagon with around 12,000 miles on it. Ordered it with every option I wanted. Love every aspect on the way it rides and drives. I do like that the '18s have the shift arm vs. the knob. Although the new larger entertainment center seems to be the wave of the future, it does take away the dedicated buttons. The one complaint (sort of) that I have.....it is very difficult to change the oil filter cleanly. You have one ingress/egress path around the winch and sway bar components for the filter. Not crying over that one though. Awesome drive in the snow. Drove from Chicago to Breckenridge last winter through 400+ miles of blizzard in Nebraska and only needed 4 High for about 100 miles of it. Handled altitude like a beast....tons of power. Hands down the most capable stock vehicle you can buy.
Great review. I have a Power Wagon and it's still, the best 4x4 truck ever produced. Nothing from Ford, GM or any other foreign manufacturer even comes close to this off-road beast.
Great review. Like your demeanor and attention to detail. I hadn't gotten to see things like the center console and 4WD shifter in detail like that in other videos.
Great video. I enjoyed it very much. Can you do a video on the tradesman power wagon? Maybe a video with both and comparing the two. I will be looking for it for sure.
I really like your style of review. You really get into a good amount of detail with some of the features. This is by far one of the best reviews of the Power Wagon. You just need to change the title from 1500 to 2500 ;)
I have a 17, and I’m so glad to see the seat memory buttons on the door, the remote adjustable convex mirrors and that the windshield sprayers aren’t on the hood.
Nothing will happen if you put it into park or reverse at speed has to be 1 mph or less before it will change gears ⚙️. Also just subscribed great video!!!
The Power Wagon makes the Rubicon look and feel like a toy off road. I own both and the Power Wagon feels like a military tank compared to my wife’s Rubicon. I have owned them all (including a Raptor) and nothing comes close to the Power Wagon. It’s more than the sum of its parts and makes technical trails feel effortless like a trip to the store. This is the truck for owners that demand the most capable off road rig money can buy. Everything else just wants to “look” like it’s a off road rig. Surprisingly, It actually rides really good on the highway at 75mph because of its off road suspension.
I liked your review so much I bought A 2019 PW. 100% agree it needs A telescoping steering wheel. I gave you A like but I can't subscribe because I can"t afford to watch any more of your reviews because it may sway me to purchase another vehicle!
The Flame Red color has been available on the Ram pickups for 5 or more years. All over the country, and in Canada and other markets. There are probably a hundred thousand flame red Rams in the US alone. It's been fairly popular.
I love both! But RAM is better for rock crawling and deep ruts... while Raptor is more desert high speed runner, but can do most of what RAM can do, but not sure RAM can do most of what Raptor can do.
Ram does everything the raptor does, just slower, whereas the Wagon can go deeper into the woods or where ever. So in my opinion, If I lived in Cali, I am going with the raptor. If I live in Maine, I am taking the Wagon.
ri1429 I have a 2500 megacab and sometimes I take into Manhattan for meetings / 0 parking and most garages will not take the truck because it's just too big
yo, put in the panoramic sun roof, put in the better center console, air suspension, 35+ inch tires, and also better looking wheels stock, and I would be sold.
You can throw a Ram into Park/Reverse at highway speeds and it'll do nothing but yell at you. Its an electronic shifter so they vehicle knows its not safe to change gears. But anything under 20mph, it might change so I wouldn't do it at slow speeds lol
I test drove one of these, it’s a nice truck but it is very small inside the front seats don’t move back very far. I measured the difference and it’s 7 inches shorter in leg room than my GMC AT4. I’m 6’4 so that made the difference.
The wheel wells/gas tank area will rust out before you pay the vehicle off and the wench is to help you get on the tow truck when you break down, which is inevitable.
Very true. My 15 ram 1500 sport 4x4 is the only vehicle I've ever owned or even seen with rust on the front fender the size of a golf ball before it's 1st oil change & I live in Tennessee & the truck never experienced even 1 snow flake before this happened. Total pos.
@@ryan-xj4hr When I lived in Michigan I would see 2yr old dodge cars with rust holes in the middle of the doors,but I figured 20yrs later & living in the south that I wouldn't have that to worry about,but I was wrong. Now I have an aluminum truck & curious to see how time treats it. I do know that these 13th gen f150's are super string as my 1st one was t-boned by a full sized SUV going 60+ mph,it hit me so hard it even broke the rear differential & sent me spinning in a circle like a throwing stat over a hill & I walk away with only a bruise from the seatbelt. That truck saved my life. I went out the very next morning & bought another one & even stepped it up & got a nicer model. I put a whipple on that truck to achieve 750hp & it dominated the road & than I decided that it was time for a even better version & got a new fully loaded raptor that isn't near as fast,but is still very very nice & problem free.
Own a 2013 and dealer fixing it told me to get rid of it. Not trade in but get rid of. Apparently even they didn't want it on the lot. 125,000 miles and very rusty underneath.
The turn dial gear select is disabled once the vehicle is moving. As soon as you break 3 mph it will no longer work. So if you accidentally do it on the highway you don't have anything to worry about.
I have the 2019 Ram Rebel 12 and I see there are a lot of differences in the new Powerwagon, and that they are still using the old cab from the previous generation Powerwagon. It’s a shame that they didn’t use the new cab that’s on the new Ram 1500, and it weird that the Ram 1500 is larger on the inside than the 2500 Powerwagon. Since it uses the old cab some things are still old like the back seat without a flat floor requiring a fold out self to make it flat, also the old steering wheel without telescoping and some older switch gear like the turn signals. You are also losing 3 inches of rear legroom in the backseat compared to the 1500 Crewcab.
LIKE YOUR COMMENT ! ESPECIALLY THE BACK SEAT FLOOR. THE ITEMS MENTIONED WOULD NOT STOP ME CONSIDERING PURCHASE LATER THIS YEAR. HOW IS YOUR REBEL PERFORMING ?
pjasyl ...... I love my Rebel and it’s luxury car quiet. I did a muffler delete and it’s still too quiet. I had a 2015 Ram 1500 prior but it sounded better stock than my new Rebel.
I have the 2019 Rebel as well, (8.4 screen). I like the wagon, but have always been a rebel fan. But I have a unique taste, and the 19 Rebel interior was 100% for me. I had to have it. Love it.
I love my new Titan but man I think my next truck will be a new power wagon. The interior alone on newer Ram trucks is beautiful compared to other manufacturers.
That bed cover would have to come off. Decked Storage system and a rack system for additional storage pods, and to hold a PUP tent would have to go on.
I like the new one, but for the dial shifter, lord knows I'd like a new transmission on my "16 Wagon, it's always hanging up in 2nd but, its a beast, I have a Thuren 1.5" leveling coils on it, shocks, track bar, New AEV Katla wheels, 35" Toyo ATII, White Knuckle Rock Rails, AFE, coldair intake, bunch of LEDs, Recon clearance lamps, to match the side lamps, master pull gear, Factor 55 gear, ... and a kayak rack. It's great out on Race Point .
I have a black 2019 Rebel 5.7 w/ eTorque, 2" leveling kit, 20" Off-Road wheels, and 33" Renagade R/T tires. So it's already bigger than your average truck. Man, I pulled up to a new Power Wagon last night, and my truck looked like a baby lol. Maybe that wagon was lifted or something lol. Looked great though
@@forrestsautoreviewsofficial They really are. But, I'm still happy with the Rebel. The Power Wagon's interior is nothing to my Rebel's, in my opinion. The Rebel was also just named the 2019 off-road truck of the year lol
Liked your review of the power wagon ! Glad that you showed the ram box option. Shopping for a new truck later this year. The power wagon is now getting considered. Need to know length of truck bed ?
Did Ram not think of a major problem with that unlock system? With the key inside the truck and you in the truck as well, if you lock it to get away from a hostile person, they can just walk up and put there hand behind the handle and unlock the truck and get in with you.
Never own another Ford.. Junk. Chevy or Dodge. Just picked up a clean 01 Laramie with the 360. 145,000 miles on it. And love it best truck I've ever had.
@@ralphchurch2263 blah blah blah. I've had several new Ford's since 2010 at least 1 to 3 per yr & never ever ever ever go to the dealer for anything other than oil changes.
@@ralphchurch2263 I bought a loaded 15 ram crewcab 4x4 sport back in 14 & it had issues the day I got it,the led light in the overhead console did not work but the salesman assured me it would be fixed,it never was. The sunroof had little or no grease & was like metal on metal,they said it was normal although no other ram on the lot sounded this way & it's was very audible/noticeable. Than I found a spot of rust the size of a golf ball on the front fender,I thought it was a leaf stuck in that little piece of plastic that's supposed to protect the rocker from rocks being kicked up by the tire. They couldn't deny that one & scheduled it to be repaired & than all my headlights & fog lights would get severe condensation in them,you know the really cool looking blacked out projection style ones & then one day I was standing in the bed & looked at my beds floor & could see my driveway & it had a factory spray in liner,so imagine how big that gap must have been since even that didn't close it. The feather that broke my back was when it was hunting season/fall & I had my truck parked outside & it had rained for 4 days straight & I went to get something from the rear passenger part of the truck (I kept my hunting gear in there & I placed my hand on the never even sat in leather seat to brace myself & the whole seat was completely soaked & after inspecting the area I noticed everything was wet. After taking it to the dealer to be accessed they found that the gasket for the 3rd brake light/cargo light was folded when installed at the factory causing a huge gap & water was coming in by the cup fulls. I figured that they would strip the interior & replace the effected components after drying it out but no,they wanted to simply air it out. I said F you let me take one of your personal $52,000+ vehicles that has a leather interior that hasn't even been used as seating 1 time & let me run a water hose in it & than we'll just let it air out. Needless to say I traded that truck at 4,700 miles on a new loaded powerstroke f250 that never gave me 1 single problem ever.
I showed this video to my wife. She’s now 6’3” with a full beard and can lift me over her head.
She's Melania Trump now?????

Supposedly the 8-speed in the 2019 helps get it a little more mpg. But the reality is that the 6.4L Hemi is a bit dated now.
Should bring her to check out some 1500s. She could get a 1500 Limited and get a truck that puts most luxury SUVs to shame.
I sold my 17 with 88000 miles and was still running like it was brand new
Kevin Milligan hey Kevin, how’s the mileage now a days? Is your highway around the same about 15mpg?
This is the best review of the power wagon on CZcams. Thanks bro👍👍✌
It can’t really be compared to a Raptor.
The Raptor is made for high speed prerunning. The Power Wagon is built to go anywhere.
Yeah like the scrapyard and it wouldn’t make it out

I have the 2019 Rebel as well, (8.4 screen). I like the wagon, but have always been a rebel fan. But I have a unique taste, and the 19 Rebel interior was 100% for me. I had to have it. Love it.
I wished you and Key still had your sketch show
Looks like Jordan Peele doing a skit. Lol. 🤙🏻
Great video, great review. Did this power wagon have a 6'-4" bed?
yeah, thats the only bed option when you buy it
Wish they would make a single cab power wagon, like in the old days. A short wheel base would be better for off road.
You’re the only review pointing out the front bumper is steel. Thanks!
Just a note here The Rambox is an option it is not a standard feature.
Man this truck looks like a tank
Great job with the review!
I had a2005 power wagon, loved it I would like another one some day
I love my new Titan but man I think my next truck will be a new power wagon. The interior alone on newer Ram trucks is beautiful compared to other manufacturers.
That bed cover would have to come off. Decked Storage system and a rack system for additional storage pods, and to hold a PUP tent would have to go on.
20:17 were you on a car seat? 🤣
Very nicely explained. Covered every detail. Wish i could import this power wagon to India. 🇮🇳
Does it come with a 6 speed manual Cummins ?
No
Impressive truck and a great review
I like the new one, but for the dial shifter, lord knows I'd like a new transmission on my "16 Wagon, it's always hanging up in 2nd but, its a beast, I have a Thuren 1.5" leveling coils on it, shocks, track bar, New AEV Katla wheels, 35" Toyo ATII, White Knuckle Rock Rails, AFE, coldair intake, bunch of LEDs, Recon clearance lamps, to match the side lamps, master pull gear, Factor 55 gear, ... and a kayak rack. It's great out on Race Point .
And An Eco Mode Shut Off Button Would Be A Nice Option.
Great review 👍🏽
Two different animals. Ram is a rock crawls all around “HEAVY” 4x4. Raptor is a light duty Baja inspired truck.
Great review. I have been sold on this truck for awhile. I have a Ford F150, that I want to trade up for this.
There are buttons on the Bach of the steering wheel where you can control the radio
Those dinky tires make the ram look like it skipped leg day for a whole year
Great review !
I have a black 2019 Rebel 5.7 w/ eTorque, 2" leveling kit, 20" Off-Road wheels, and 33" Renagade R/T tires. So it's already bigger than your average truck. Man, I pulled up to a new Power Wagon last night, and my truck looked like a baby lol. Maybe that wagon was lifted or something lol. Looked great though
@@forrestsautoreviewsofficial They really are. But, I'm still happy with the Rebel. The Power Wagon's interior is nothing to my Rebel's, in my opinion. The Rebel was also just named the 2019 off-road truck of the year lol
Is the gas good?
Forgot to speak about the radio controls( volume and change the radio station) on the backside of the steering wheel
What's with the caption says ram1500
OH SHOOT! I never noticed that!
Nice review. Thanks!
I liked your review, Boss
what do you get on a full tank of gas?
Would I buy a Power Wagon instead of a Raptor? Why yes, I did exactly that. I bought a 2018 Power Wagon last July. I absolutely love my Power Wagon.
You can get sunroofs and bedliners in these trucks. Looking forward to getting mine next year, though itll be a 2020.
Liked your review of the power wagon ! Glad that you showed the ram box option.
Shopping for a new truck later this year. The power wagon is now getting considered.
Need to know length of truck bed ?
I believe it is 6 ft 4 in
Thanks for the information !
That's the bed length that i need for my new truck .
With the Ram Box it's about 48 inches wide.
@@sostrucking Thanks for reply !
Now i know that the box will easily take a large atv.
The ram box option in my opinion is worth the cost. Gives extra storage for chainsaw, tools, & other small items !
Did Ram not think of a major problem with that unlock system? With the key inside the truck and you in the truck as well, if you lock it to get away from a hostile person, they can just walk up and put there hand behind the handle and unlock the truck and get in with you.
Never own another Ford.. Junk. Chevy or Dodge. Just picked up a clean 01 Laramie with the 360. 145,000 miles on it. And love it best truck I've ever had.
Really don't know what your missing out on.
I've had 6 new Ford trucks since 2013 & never a hiccup.
Charles henson sure I know what I'm missing Fix Or Repair Daily.. Found On Road Dead.. Haven't had to touch my Dodge.
@@ralphchurch2263 blah blah blah.
I've had several new Ford's since 2010 at least 1 to 3 per yr & never ever ever ever go to the dealer for anything other than oil changes.
Charles henson good for you.. several Ford's.. Reason I still won't own one. Junk.

I bought a loaded 15 ram crewcab 4x4 sport back in 14 & it had issues the day I got it,the led light in the overhead console did not work but the salesman assured me it would be fixed,it never was.
The sunroof had little or no grease & was like metal on metal,they said it was normal although no other ram on the lot sounded this way & it's was very audible/noticeable.
Than I found a spot of rust the size of a golf ball on the front fender,I thought it was a leaf stuck in that little piece of plastic that's supposed to protect the rocker from rocks being kicked up by the tire.
They couldn't deny that one & scheduled it to be repaired & than all my headlights & fog lights would get severe condensation in them,you know the really cool looking blacked out projection style ones & then one day I was standing in the bed & looked at my beds floor & could see my driveway & it had a factory spray in liner,so imagine how big that gap must have been since even that didn't close it.
The feather that broke my back was when it was hunting season/fall & I had my truck parked outside & it had rained for 4 days straight & I went to get something from the rear passenger part of the truck (I kept my hunting gear in there & I placed my hand on the never even sat in leather seat to brace myself & the whole seat was completely soaked & after inspecting the area I noticed everything was wet.
After taking it to the dealer to be accessed they found that the gasket for the 3rd brake light/cargo light was folded when installed at the factory causing a huge gap & water was coming in by the cup fulls.
I figured that they would strip the interior & replace the effected components after drying it out but no,they wanted to simply air it out.
I said F you let me take one of your personal $52,000+ vehicles that has a leather interior that hasn't even been used as seating 1 time & let me run a water hose in it & than we'll just let it air out.
Needless to say I traded that truck at 4,700 miles on a new loaded powerstroke f250 that never gave me 1 single problem ever.
