Finding a Power Wagon for daily use that has had a re-power, power steering and disk brakes will be difficult. If the upgrades have been done correctly, it will command a high price.Keep in mind, Power Wagons were designed for serious off road and back roads. In my opinion as owner of 4 Dodge Old Irons that will run any legal speed in the US everyday, all day......they are not safe at Freeway/Interstate speeds. Even though high speed is available by pushing the Go Pedal a little more, I usually drive 55 and a top of 60. Even then a bad accident and I am toast.
