More Hemi Trucks on the Way! 

Expected out in January, the 2500 Ram Hemi Power Wagon. On the home page is the Power Wagon press release with more details. I spied this silver one at the Cheyenne Frontier Days in Wyoming last week. Dodge is a big promoter of rodeo's and Cheyenne is the "Grand Daddy of Them All."

The Warn winch is well tucked away in the bumper and with the Ram grill attached to the hood makes access to the winch easy.

 

Retail sticker on the 2005 Power Wagon. It will be good to have a factory model with front and rear lockers and a 4.56 rear axle ratio. I'm not sure we're going to get the larger tires promised though. But we'll know this winter.

If you look close you can see the moon roof. I didn't get a picture of it, but I saw the aluminum disconnect for the front stabilizer. Disconnecting the front anti-sway bar will allow the front axle more wheel travel similar to the rock crawlers.

The rumors I could squeeze from Dodge reps, is the new larger Hemi 6.1L is scheduled to be in Hemi 2500/3500 trucks in the 2007 model, released September of 2006. Power horsepower and torque ratings won't be released until GM releases power ratings of the new 454. The new 6.1.L Hemi is to be mated to a 6-speed automatic tranny from Hino the Korean truck company.

2007 model year should be another major year for Dodge trucks with the new 6.7L Cummins diesel out that year meeting the new stricter diesel emissions laws.
