    Hello all, I like the site so far. I just traded my 2006 Power Wagon in for a 2012 Tacoma TRD Offroad today. It is on a truck as we speak and I get to bring it home tomorrow. I have owned two Tacoma pickups in the past and built them to suite....never anything this nice though. I am very excited.

    The Power Wagon is a cool truck. Don't they come with front+rear lockers and a winch?

    Yes, it is a tank...1 ton running gear on a 3/4 ton chassis, lift, front and rear lockers, electronic swaybar disconnect, 12,000lb Warn, full skids, 4.56 gears, and other off road goodies. The truck weighs in at 7400lb and was incredible off road. The only issue I had with the truck was averaging 10.5 mpg....I just couldn't afford to drive the pig. I worked out a good deal and got the same payment for the new Tacoma TRD which should suite me just fine.

    Thanks for the welcome! The truck arrived around 6:00 this evening so it was getting too dark to take pictures. So far I love this thing, it drives and rides very well. I will have some glory shots up tomorrow. :)

    Wow a Power Wagon, I had a '72, swapped out the stock front axle for the 1-ton axle Dodge offered at the time, sitting on 38.5 x14.50 x 16.5 Cepek Monster Mudders on jackmans (very old school) 8 Gabriel racing "E" series shocks & it too was a tank, the driverside door handle was right at 68" off the ground & was the first Dodge in Ca. running the then new Rancho suspension lifts, this was back in 1977 IIRC.....yep, i'm old...;)

    I went out Geocaching today with around 4" of new snow in town. I got into some areas where there was a foot of old snow underneath and decided it was time to head back...being by myself and all. The truck did great.
