As far as I know you can't get a powerwagon with a cummins.

Not sure why you'd want it. Wayyyyyyy too heavy.

Nope, you cannot. Like you said, cummins is heavy and also requires a larger radiator which would interfere with the slot the winch goes in behind the bumper. The 6.4 is plenty of power...think it's rated around 450hp/480tq.

450 seems high probably closer to 400hp.

My jeep with the 6.4, 4.10's and 37's gets 9.8 on average, so he could be in the double digits with stock tires


Pics of said Jeep? sounds badass

The 6.4 makes 470/470 in the SRT vehicles. They changed the tuning for the trucks (same as they do for the 5.7 hemi), which bumps hp down a bit and tq up a bit. The current 5.7 makes 390hp/410ish tq.

I like it a lot better then the ford, but I'm still a GM man. Good looking truck though!

It's the only reason I would have to buy a Dodge...

measure it the old fashion, tried n' true way, miles divided by gallons. I hear tell that the dodge mathematicians are from missahippy and fracked up the on board program by 4 mpg..

1 mpg for each of the 4 seconds that they had to set their watch back.

My new work truck is a 4x4 Quad cab Outdoorsman package with the 5.7 Hemi. Not a Dodge fan but they have come a long way since the junk they were selling in the mid to late 90s.
