Gordon,
Much as I hate to dispute one of the acknowledged experts in the field of Power Wagons, I beleive you are not quite right in saying the the 46 to 68 Power wagon is the only way to go. I think that the trucks that are "badged" with power wagon are all an impressive breed. I have owned both and found that the 70's group is in it's own right worthy to wear the name that is on the hood. As far as brute strength the old power wagon has it hands down but for a day to day driver in southern California it leaves a lot to be desired. By the test it will not hold up quite as well as the 40's and 50' Power Wagon but by far exceeds the others of the same vintage. I will agree that it is another offshoot but still with a lot to offer.
