This is what happens when TFB’s sister publication, autoguide.com, sends a professional camera crew to record James – a gun reviewer – driving the brand new Ram Power Wagon.

In a collaboration with the autoguide.com crew, TFBTV continues its Industry Day at the Range coverage: RAM Trucks asked TFBTV to run a test drive video of the new 2017 RAM Power Wagon before any of the auto publications or blogs got their hands on it.  RAM – a SHOT Show Sponsor – wanted to emphasize commitment the outdoor and shooter-friendly features like a locking pistol box in the floorboards, two locking rifle boxes in the bed, incredible offroad performance, and a 12,000 lbs. winch. The press release is below:

For 2017, Power Wagon will top a lineup of off-road trucks that includes Rebel and the 4×4 Off-road Package and will support the Ram brand’s claim to being the off-road truck leader.

Based on the Ram 2500 Heavy Duty 4×4 Crew Cab, the Power Wagon features a number of off-road-specific enhancements, including a unique suspension with more than two inches of lift, locking differentials and a 12,000-lb. winch, giving this beast a significant advantage over all production pickups.

“The Ram Power Wagon is an off-road, all-access pass, removing the limitations, instilling confidence and allowing owners to reach areas of recreation and lifestyle not attainable with any other pickup,” said Mike Manley, Head of Jeep Brand and Ram Brand, FCA – Global. “The 2017 Ram Power Wagon delivers to those who travel into extreme terrain, while providing the towing and payload capability required in a heavy-duty truck.”

The 2017 Ram Power Wagon engineering efforts include a best-in-class 410 horsepower, 6.4-liter HEMI® V-8 engine.

“Dating back to 1945, the Ram Power Wagon’s heritage holds a distinctive position in the Ram Truck lineup as an example of engineering innovation and off-road capability,” said Rob Wichman, Director – Ram Truck Engineering. “For 2017, the Power Wagon’s best-in-class, can-do toughness is matched by can’t-stop-me looks.”

The Power Wagon nameplate was initially produced from 1945 through 1980. Early trucks were based on the Weapons Carrier (WC) series of Dodge ¾-ton military-use trucks built during World War II. The Power Wagon went on to become a well-known civilian vehicle. The iconic truck was reintroduced in 2005 and now exists as an independent model in the Ram Truck lineup.
