Just when I thought it could not get any crazier, I just realized they put 20" bling bling rims on the Power Wagon for 2025! WTF is going on here. Winch became optional, then street rims? So now you have to go to the tire shop for new rims and tires before you leave the pavement.....I saw one the other day and did not clue in, I thought what dumb ass swapped in street tires and rims on a Power Wagon, making it look like a Chevy.

So to rehash. 2025 brought less power and a 5,000.00 up charge to go get real tires and rims made for the Power Wagon. Things are really off the rails. I hope Tim takes a look at the PW path soon.

I pick up my 25 on Sat and has the 17”s with the normal 33”s. The ones I saw on the lot all had that config too, no 20”s.
 
Are you sure they were either OEM or on a PW, not a PW Rebel?

The PW Rebel can be definitely be optioned with 20’s.
 
Crazy…I did not build mine, it was just on the lot that way (and yes, it’s a PW rebel). Was the 4.10 rear end also an upgrade in the past? Shows 3.73 as the standard.

Most power wagon owners never leave the pavement same with craptor owners
 
Question is why have they been butchering the Build and Price all this year so much? No, its ALWAYS been 4:10

It's definitely not a this year thing, it's been a crap shoot on accuracy as long as I can remember.

I haven't looked recently, but in years past there was a lot more accuracy to Costco's build and price.

That should be punishable by Jail Time. Maybe there should be a license for these types of vehicles. Maybe a drivers qualification test?

1. What does a locker do?
2. What is a snatch Block?
3. What is the difference between static and dynamic recovery ropes?
4. How many times have you run the Rubicon?
5. Explain IFS and IRS
5. Do you go to Starbucks? And so on.............

That is part of the test!!
1. Place your clothes in it
2. A block in the red light district
3. Static generates static electricity
4. Does Flying over in an Airplane Count?
5. Types of Flying Conditions
5. Not supposed to answer this one
 
Never done the Rubicon in a Power Wagon, sure it would be interesting. Cant wait to take the Grenadier when Momma is ready to let me. For now the ole 1996 Montero will have to do.
 
Interesting, not sure how that would compare. I bet i would like 4:56. Then again new ones with the ZF have a lower first gear...

Yeah, back then we just had the 5sp auto. So more trans gears and lower numerical axles was a natural progression I suppose. I went from 3.55 w/stock tires on my 1500 to 4.56 and 35’s (in ‘05)… totally different truck after that.
