Positioning the big truck in the lane is a challenge, and there isn’t much in the way of handling prowess on pavement. The Ram Power Wagon feels every last bit of its 6,939-pound curb weight when driving down the road. Output: 410 Horsepower / 429 Pound-Feet.It’s not terribly bothersome, especially for the Power Wagon shopper who knows what they’re getting into. The big, blocky shape doesn’t even yield much wind noise, although the rugged off-road tires sing out louder and louder as speed rises. In spite of its solid front and rear axles, the Power Wagon is reasonably comfortable on bad pavement and rough terrain – Ram engineers have done a good job of balancing hardcore capability with adequate on-road comfort. The aging bones also mean that, unlike the redesigned-in-20, the Power Wagon and all other Heavy Duty trucks miss out on a telescoping steering wheel, limiting driver comfort somewhat. That aforementioned architecture, though hidden behind modernized styling, results in a lack of headroom for tall passengers. The rear seat is less hospitable, in spite of heating for the outboard positions. There’s a little rail with built-in cable guides for your phone, the bin under the armrest has enough space for a small notebook computer, and the cupholder and tray keep snacks and drinks within easy reach. It’s also easy to keep stuff organized thanks to the massive center console and its abundant trays, slots, and cubbies. The supportive leather seats offer good comfort, and thanks to the Power Wagon Level 3 equipment group, they’re heated and ventilated on this tester. Those nice materials help contribute to the Ram Power Wagon’s comfortable cabin.
