But to say that a new Power Wagon is no better than a '57 W200?
If that's the case than why was he looking for a new truck a few forums back? Was'nt it a W250 with a cummins he was looking for?
If he really belived what he said, than the WDX he keeps dragging around from place to place would be all he would need right?
I think it's novel to have a Power wagon that you drive every day and work with, it's what I do with my '53. But I'm not going to drive it to Colorado, or Moab every year. It's unrealistic. I'm going to put it on a trailer and tow it there behind my 3500 Cummins. The 3500 is designed for that, the PW is not.
The new PW looks like it is designed to drive you comfortably across country to Moab, then take you on the trails, and get you home to Texas.
If you have the means Paul, I say go for it, I want a ride though.
