Just for clarification…the Tradesman with Power Wagon package has all the same mechanical goodies that the “Power Wagon” trim level has…F & R lockers, 4.10 Axle Ratios, Front Sway Bar Disconnect, Power Wagon 17” wheels and 33” tires, Fender Flares, Softer Spring Rates, Bilstein Shocks, Articulink Control Arms, Skid Plates, and the Winch….the suspension changes also mean it has the same GVWR as the “Power Wagon” trim level, 8565lbs, which results in the reduced payload/towing.
Yes, you can get the “package” to save a few bucks, but in my opinion the PW “Trim” is a pretty huge step up for $5,000 more….on a $50,000 truck its about 10% more.
What you get by stepping up: LED Headlights & Foglights, LED Taillights, Power Folding Tow Mirrors, Integrated Trailer Brake Controller, Clearance Lights, Front & Rear Park Assist Sensors, 400W Inverter, Rubber Floor Mats, Power Sliding Rear Window with Defrost, 8.4 U-Connect Radio, Power Drivers Seat, Upgraded Seating Material with “Tread Marks”, Upgraded Door Cards, Locking Lower Glove Box, Upper GloveBox(Vs Tray), Upgraded Instrument Panel with 7” TFT Screen, 60/40 Folding Rear Seats, Fold-Flat Rear Floor, Black Headliner, Leather Steering Wheel, Auto-Dimming Rear View Mirror, “Acoustic” Windshield and Front Glass, Powder Coat Black Bumpers (vs Chrome), and the Power Wagon grille & Badging/decals (love it or hate it)
