With the price of the Current Power Wagon being soooo much more than a regular Hemi 4x4, I wouldn't think that DC could sell too many of them. They would cost more than the SRT-10, but you're right, they would be waaay cooler

Not to mention they'd have to do something different with the front bumper for the winch to clear the intercooler.

Watch them come with a big rebate. Dodge throws it out there and then woops, need to sell them. What was the marketing department thinking setting that price. Already seen that with the SRT's. Just my opinion.

Why not just get a 2500/3500 Cummins truck and add the parts you want? The e-lockers would be the ONLY part of the whole "PowerWagon" package that I'd want anyway. All the other parts can be done better with aftermarket pieces.

Why the e-lockers? I'm thinking ARB air lockers are the way to go. (Yeah, I know the rear isn't available yet.) W/ ARB you can air up your tires when you get back to pavement.

An ARB compressor is about the weakest electric comp out there, it works great for activating the lockers but as on board air it would flat out suck. They produce very low CFM.

not to mention you have to worry about lines and crap. If it's a quality e-locker, I would go with that for sure. (and I know the pains of ARB's.. I have 2 in my Jeep)
