4x4s represent!!!!
Not much activity on the powerwagon board is there?What do you other guys do with your 4x4's Mine gets used for hunting,hualing,pulling,pushing,cruising and just plain showing off!
Re: 4x4s represent!!!!
I usually drive my '68 W200 from April through November. I'm eventually
going to have another '68 W200 Utiline that I'll mount a snow plow on.
I'll use it for "clean up" plowing.... when I'm not in any rush to get our
lane opened & cleaned up..... that I do with my '03 W2500 HEMI with
an electric over hydraulic BOSS plow.... nice and easy to operate with
a hand-held remote

John, I like your wrecker. I always thought it would be cool to have one.

Re: 4x4s represent!!!!
This is my ex Forest Service rig:


It gets used on the farm. I sold the bed to put on a flatbed for more utility, but the guy hasn't picked it up in over a year. If he is MIA then maybe I'll rebuild the bed and stick it back on...
This is what I would like to own....

even better if it was a cabover...

Re: 4x4s represent!!!!
Thank you
Re: 4x4s represent!!!!
Here is my yellow Power Wagon,hard at work.It serves duty almost daily hauling tools,drywall,mud,scaffold,ect. I've been driving it for 20 years. It has given me no reason to replace it. (Though it could use some new paint).
Re: 4x4s represent!!!!
Here is Rosanna's truck ,decked out for a trip to the lake.This is what we use this truck for ,mostly.
Re: 4x4s represent!!!!


I think the paint job looks just fine on that PW... nothing beats patina!

Re: 4x4s represent!!!!
I mainly use mine for what was originally said. Hauling, sightseeing, driving, etc. However, that's my ford. The dodge mainly just holds down a section of my driveway
Eventually, it will replace the ford's duties, as my ford is a reg cab and with a family it isn't as convenient. I really can't wait to get this crew up and on the road 


What a mess.
Re: 4x4s represent!!!!
Mine is like me, retired and not used to hard work anymore.
I mostly use it to fill up half of my garage and add to my insurance bill, but do take it out about once every month, maybe more often if I need something from Lowe's or Home Depot. At least the insurance is cheap, about $15 per month.
