Ive had Chevy’s my whole life but decided to go with the Power Wagon because of the off road capabilities built on a rugged 2500 platform (boxed frame, HD brakes, etc). I was fully expecting a badass hard core off road capable truck (which I got), but what I wasn’t expecting was the ride quality. It drives and rides like a Denali going down the road. The transmission is buttery smooth and the hemi has gobs of power. I have a 100-mile round-trip commute in the rockies and I’ve never been so comfortable making that drive. If you want a daily driver that does EVERYTHING you ask of it with comfort and ease, this is your truck. If you need to tow a triple axle 5th wheel RV camper, get the Tremor. But I tow a K5 Blazer on a steel double-axle car hauler with my PW and it does it with ease. Was skeptical about leaving Chevy, but I’ve never loved a truck more than my Power Wagon. Highly recommended.
Thanks for making this video. You really do a good job of explaining the truck and describing what you are experiencing as you drive it. Also, your Gerry Todd style of speaking was quite relaxing.
Loved the 2022 RAM Power Wagon POV review and off-roading venture. Well done!
Thanks for the support, Hector!
I spend a lot of time with Rams. They have been doing a great job over the last couple years.
You are so correct. Ram improved dramatically by far.
@@ramrider1453 I just posted a video of a Ram 1500 I detailed. The two tone interior and the color of the accent pieces was awesome! The Western Brown metallic paint was dope too.
Great video dude.
Awesome Ram !!
Omg i love RAM its a beast. Keep it up bud 💯💯💯💯
Will do!
Thanks for the review. I've had mine for about 6 months and I really like it. I average about 13.5 mpg calculated at the pump for each fill up. If you run the tires at 50 psi on the road, it makes it ride smoother.
Great review on a truck I’ve had my eye on for awhile now. Question: where did you film the off road portion of your review? It looks like you’re in the Southern California area. Again, great review. Thanks.
Mpg is 10 around town and 14 to 15 freeway. If you drive in grandma mode you can improve around town to maybe 12 but it's a lot of work so know what your getting into. I love mine and I have a 2022
Have you taken it offroad?
LISTEN anyone with a ram 2500 6.4, if you want your truck to feel weightless, get a pedal commander... highly recommend and the truck flysss lol
All pedal commander does is shorten the acceleration pedal range, you might as well keep the more precise control over your car and just do a kick down when needed, that’s all pedal commander does.
@@Brian-jv8iy nah man, I promise you it's different cause I had one in my redeye and I liked it more in my sisters 2500. It does shorten it but it also makes the truck get torque quicker making it feel weightless for how much gas you give it.
It’s called turn off traction control it’s not a race car I don’t need instant it’s a truck
LISTEN don’t LISTEN to this guy truck wasn’t designed to be a race car
@@Brian-jv8iy helps with the lag, friendo
What's up milesperhr love this video and all your video's.but could you do a video on the 2021 Ford Shelby f150 lower truck
I don't think those are Cali legal....maybe the non supercharged ones are but the other ones aren't. He's Cali based.
Thanks for the support! I can look into this 👍
I own a 2013 with 120k now and she has done everything I have ever asked of her. 4.56 gearing pulls like an ox
Love your vids
Thanks for the support!
I will own of these monsters extremely nice! Coworkers say that thing will guzzle the gas i tellem well i have a fully professional built Challenger Scat that gets 4.6 in town so this truck will be like a prius, 😅
12/15 mpg!! Hahaha! My 2022 Power Wagon, driven gently, gets 8 in the city and 11 mpg at 75 mph. It is my only complaint about the vehicle. Take it over diesel or turboed V-6 any day. Absolute beast off-road. And I don't tow much. It is perfect. I will add a 100 gallon auxiliary tank and then no range anxiety
Yeah, you don't buy a Power Wagon for gas mileage but my 2022 PW averages 12.5 mpg for my combined city/highway commute. The secret is to not romp on it as you accelerate. You can also improve your mileage by 2 to 3 mpg buying ethanol free gasoline which is available at Murphy USA. Lastly, I use Walmart+ for 10 cents off a gallon and apps like UpSide to save money on my gasoline. Every little bit helps.
Hey Miles! Could you ever review and drive a Acura RDX? I wanna see your own opinion on the car and how it performs.
I totally would, but the last couple Acura videos I made (MDX Type S and Integra) really didn’t perform well. If a lot of people really start asking for it, I will work it into the schedule, but my time is tight with all these cars, so I have to choose the ones the majority of people will enjoy!
@@MilesPerHr I understand
My PW only gets 8-9 mpg in town. I am usually running a/c here in the desert, so that may be part of the poor mpg. I could run a TRX and do better than this. Anybody else getting those numbers in the desert SouthWest?
Real world MPG 10 City , 14 Hwy, my driving 5 MPG city, 12 MPG HWY but I was born with a heavy foot.
Weehoo brother!

HI MILES!
Hi!
glad they got rid of the column shifter
That’s been gone for awhile
I disagree, the column looks more cooler and fits the character for an American full sized pick up
Is the premium audio upgrade (17 speaker system) worth it?
Its not loud. It’s clean. The sub is also clean but more subtle than I expected. Pretty much the same as any Bose stereo you get in the other high end competitors.
Whic models has this ability to make consoul as the third sit in first row?
Huh??
Hey man can you do the Rivian rs1
Working on getting the R1S soon!
@@MilesPerHr man I love you bro u always listen to our suggestions
I go at an angle to miss my bumper or tow hitch. I guess it's preferences. The Jeeps flip over when they climb a 5-cent dime at any angle, I've Seen it, the on-point angle is for jeeps or similar, that flip over easily. A power wagon at that angle will be okay with it. Angle it then straighten it out on the hill. The angle on departure, to miss the undercarriage. But that's me.
I must've had one of those rare Jeeps. I haven't flipped one over in 12 years.
They do have an optional sunroof. Yours just doesn't happen to have one.
Looks good, but my 1500 has more equipment. I'm glad I didn't get the 2500. I don't need it.
Agree you shouldn’t get the 2500 unless you need the towing and hauling capability
Solid axles front & back, exactly how a truck should be, at least keep the rear. All these automakers tryna sell us the EV rubbish with independent axles are just pathetic, they even do so with a ton of lies... "Change for the better" my arse, heavy load aside your EV trucks are gonna handle as good as a skateboard on rocks once you take it offroading.
Woah woah woah, most capable HD off roader? Not if you get hung up on rocks with those puny 33” tires… I have a F250 Tremor diesel with factory 35’s (can easily go to 37’s), integrated winch and I would say it’s pretty even on capability (no factory front locker), but the Ford super duty tremors can still seriously tow and haul like a true HD. Cool truck though!
Get your diesel in mud and it's game over.. Diesels are not ideal for off roading...
@@daveyjones369 No real mud here in Colorado, but what’s the issue with mud?
@ Greg Weik OH thats to bad, because mud is fun... Till ya gotta clean it off... So the reason diesels don't do good in mud is because their front ends are so heavy compared to a gas engine. So the front tends to sink real fast on a diesel..
The axle articulation front and rear is much more on the ram even without its sway bar disconnect. The Ford with diesel is a much better tow and haul vehicle though. 37 fit easily on the ram also.
@@fscottgray9784 Stock for stock I think the 35’s might be more of an advantage in certain situations over front lockers and the sway bar disconnect. Both are good trucks, but I think the Super Duty Tremor is the more well-rounded package.
They can’t put a diesel in the Power Wagon because there’s not enough room with the 12,000 lb winch on the front.
Diesel
Orange.
Did I do it right? We're just commenting with random words, correct?
Steak
F 150 has a better teuck bed step
Only 500k cheap cheap cheap
you can get an aventador for 500k
Not a fan, it’s just another facelift of the 2010, still those old buttons on the steering wheel, now standing out so much, it matters when some of the competition is a lot more modern for the same money.
its the all new 2019 platform.
@@dwight122324 Ram's HD trucks never received the 5th Gen cab, and several interior components are carried over from the 4th Gen:
Steering column
Steering wheel adjustment (non-telescopic)
Steering wheel buttons
Turn signal stalk
Door release handles
Memory seat buttons
Front seat adjustment switches
Ignition button
Rear ceiling hooks
Rear seats, especially the fold-out center portion
No HUD
No panoramic sunroof
No flat rear floor
@@Furious321 Not the rear ceiling hooks! I was gonna buy one, but not if doesn't have updated rear ceiling hooks!
@@LawDawg717 Unless it's been changed for 2023, I believe those hooks are still above the rear window (not the side windows like in the 5th Gen cab).
@@Furious321 That does it. I'm buying a Mini.
Worlds famous horn test, a lot cringy 😅😅😅😅
35 inches tire's should of been on this truck. Every truck does this dumb thing.
It's for EPA MPG ratings.
🤮🤮🤢
Nah a truck like that can't be 99mph. The Dodge RAM Laramie Limited is faster
I dusted my dads Laramie he has a 5.7 hemi 2022 I own a 2019 power wagon this dork had traction control on the 6.4 pulls a 5.9 0-60
